Memorial Social Justice Scholarship
The International Congress for Critical Pedagogy and Transformative Leadership announces:

His major body of work has focused on literacy, linguistics, and language learning through a lens of social justice and critical pedagogy, having been widely published in various journals and books beginning in 1964.
In his later years, Robert was a regular attendee at the International Congress where he supported the work of “young” and/or “new” researchers, scholars, and artists who otherwise would not be able to attend.
It is in his honour that this scholarship is awarded.
