Abstract [en]

Research and policy statements suggest that school Health and Physical Education (HPE) can make a unique contribution to the physical, cognitive, emotional and social development of young people (Opstoel et al., 2020; UNESCO, 2015). It can also provide opportunities for young people to develop the knowledge and skills needed to navigate and respond to the inequities and precarity (Kirk, 2020) that have been amplified in our post COVID-19 world. Despite the aforementioned potential of HPE, it does not always provide equitable opportunities for all students, and often excludes on the basis of gender, sexuality, ethnicity, religion and social class (see e.g., Gerdin & Larsson, 2018; Landi, 2019).The aim of the EDUHEALTH 2.0 project, which brings together researchers from Sweden, Norway, South Africa, Australia and New Zealand, is to identify, compare, co-design and support the enactment of social justice pedagogies in HPE that promote equitable learning experiences and outcomes. This project builds on the findings and outcomes of our previous EDUHEALTH project that called on HPE teacher observations and post observation critical incident interviews (Philpot et al, 2020), and identified how broader curricular and school policy interact to facilitate theenactment of social justice pedagogies in HPE. These pedagogies include building good relationships, teaching for social cohesion and explicitly teaching about and acting on social inequities (Gerdin et al., 2020).  EDUHEALTH 2.0 will build on this previous research by exploring how HPE curricula serves to enable pedagogies for social justice and the students’ perspectives and experiences of such pedagogical practices as well as further developing and supporting the enactment of social justice pedagogies across different contexts through action-research with teachers.This proposed symposium will outline the methodological framework for EDUHEALTH 2.0 and report on some initial findings of the project to date.
