Zora Haque is a PhD Candidate in Education at the Harvard University Graduate School of Education, with a concentration in Culture, Institutions, and Society (CIS). Her research sits at the intersection of education, race and ethnicity, gender, and inequity, and examines the links between imperialism in the South Asian subcontinent, family socialization, and women’s academic pathways. Zora’s dissertation explores how the legacy of colonialism has shaped Bangladeshi mother-daughter relationships, multigenerational perspectives of daughterhood, and Bangladeshi-American women’s educational trajectories.
Before beginning her PhD, Zora worked in social policy research, conducting evaluations for after-school programs, school districts, and youth-oriented centers and organizations. Zora holds an MPP in Child, Youth, and Family policy from Brandeis University, and a BA in Psychology and Education from Clark University.
