Henk's
academic background is in the social sciences (sociology, social
welfare and political science) and post-school educational
innovation and leadership. He has taught at various colleges and
universities in the social sciences and in post-school
curricular and pedagogic practices in trans-culturally diverse
settings such a s in South Africa, Malaysia, Palestine, and
India. Henk publishes widely in international journals and

marginalised social groups, by contributing to efforts for
educational improvement both in Australia and in low-income
(developing) countries. His teaching and research interests,
therefore, are firmly grounded in socially inclusive educational
strategies, leadership, and advocacy. Specific interests
currently include the strategic role of Web 2.0+ social media,
social theories of learning and improving socially inclusive
outcomes in post-colonial educational settings.
