About Francine

I am an Associate Professor in the Faculty of Education at Brock University. My research explores global education governance, policy, and leadership; international financing to education; private sector engagement; and education in contexts of humanitarian crisis. Through my studies, I seek to understand power hierarchies within international policy-making processes and global governance structures.

I was selected as a 2013 National Academy of Education/Spencer Foundation Postdoctoral Fellow, have twice won the George Bereday Award from the Comparative and International Education Society, and I am co-editor of Comparative Education Review. I have served in an advisory role to a range of non-governmental organizations, international financial institutions, and UN agencies. Prior to joining Brock University, I was faculty at the University of Massachusetts Boston, and in the past worked with an NGO in Laos and as a public school teacher in Toronto.
