Santhakumar’s academic interest lies in the inter-linkages between development and education, and the ways of shortening the ‘distance’ between population groups so as to mitigate the ‘development differences’ between them. He has carried out a number of experiments that connect teaching and research in university to the practice in the domains of development and education. His recent publications in the domain of education include \"Shephard, K., \u0026amp; Santhakumar, V. (2023). Universities with a Social Purpose: Intentions, Achievements and Challenges.

The book examines both regional and international experiments on Intercultural Education and their relevance for Asia. It highlights the lack of attention to the possible use of Intercultural Education to address internal divides in countries like India, China, or those in South and South-East Asia, where there are internal divisions pertaining to ethnicities, castes, region and religion, among others. The final section of the book discusses some of the national, regional and global challenges in the implementation of a truly Intercultural Education in Asia. This book is useful to researchers, practitioners and policymakers in the domains of Intercultural Education in different parts of the world, and education and human development in Asia.","brand":"V.
