Alison Frances Scott-Baumann, Professor Dr., BA, BSc, MSc, C.Psychol., PhD, AsFBPS
I am Professor of Society and Belief and Associate Director of Research (Impact and Engagement) at SOAS, University of London. I and my research team recently completed a three year AHRC grant to analyse representations of Islam and Muslims on university campuses (2015-18). This complements my work on free speech on campus and pathways to securitisation. The project required rigorous ethical arrangements, as Muslim students felt themselves to be a suspected subgroup on campus. In early 2019 I was commissioned by the government to work with Muslim community groups and improve young Muslims’ access into higher education. I speak on BBC Radio 4, I write for the Guardian and several higher education blogs, and I apply modern philosophy (Ricoeurian) to social justice issues. I work with UK government to improve higher education for British Muslims and I am also conducting a deep mapping of curricula and extracurricular provision for Jewish and Israeli studies in the Bloomsbury universities, to establish excellence, gaps and room for improvement.

Beschreibung
Nach neuesten Schätzungen leben gegenwärtig annähernd fünf Millionen Menschen mit einem islamischen Hintergrund in Deutschland. Etwa 580.000 von ihnen sind Schulpflichtige im Alter von 6–18 Jahren, die erst zu einem geringen Teil die Möglichkeit haben, sich im Rahmen ihrer schulischen Ausbildung religiös zu informieren.
