Who we are

The Critical Education Collective is an interdisplinary hub of scholars, experts and practitioners delivering world class masters programmes in partnersip with leading universities.

Established in 2024 in response to a funding crisis impacting higher education in many parts of the world, it aims to harness digital technologies to make postgraduate education more flexible, accessible and sustainable. Our teaching staff and partner organisations are fully invested in our programmes, fairly rewarded and retain ownership of their labour.

As a direct consequence, our students learn from the best and benefit from a range of innovations both within and outside of the classroom.

Our flagship MA Global Journalism and pathways are accredited by SOAS, University of London, which has a unique mission to challenge perspectives and empower students to question and find solutions to global challenges. Our students will benefit from the experience of studying at a world leading university, whether online or on its central London campus.

Our MA Photojournalism and Global Justice pathway is delivered in partnership with the Pathshala Institute in Dhaka, and under the direction of world-renowned photojournalist and activist, Shahidul Alam.

Our MA Documentary and Global Justice pathway is delivered in partnership with the multi-award winning Roast Beef Productions in London.
