Pamela Abbott, FAcSS (born 27 June 1947)[1] is an English academic in sociology, gender and development studies. She is Director of the Centre for Global Development and Professor in the School of Education at the University of Aberdeen,[2] and Director of the Centre for Global Development.[3]
Abbott leads the Scottish Government-funded research project Fostering a Social Practice Approach to Adult Literacies for Improving People’s Quality of Life in Western Rwanda.[4] She also leads the Global Health Research Group on promoting children’s and adolescent’s mental wellbeing in sub-Saharan Africa, a project funded by the National Institute for Health and Care Research.[5]
In her writings on feminist perspectives in sociology, Abbott challenges a limited consideration of gender issues within mainstream sociology,[6] and advocates a reconceputialisation and interdisciplinary approach in order to question fundamental assumptions in the discipline.[7]
Abbott's recent research interests focus on quality of life and socioeconomic transitions[8] in societies experiencing transformations following the Arab Spring.[9]
