The Research for Equitable Access and Learning (REAL) Centre at the University of Cambridge pioneers research into overcoming barriers to education, such as poverty, gender, ethnicity, language and disability, particularly in countries in South Asia and sub-Saharan Africa. Working in partnership with research institutions and non-academic stakeholders in these contexts, the REAL Centre aims to use this evidence to achieve impact in policy and practice.
