Professor Dauda received her PhD at the University of Toronto in 1999. Dauda’s previous research focused on comparative developing countries and she conducted research in Africa in the late 1990s on the effect of decentralization programs and the reform of local government institutions on democratic participation in South Africa, Uganda and Zimbabwe. A later study of the policy of Education For All under the auspices of UNESCO’S call for Universal Primary Education around the world by 2010 highlighted the negative effects of such a program on local political participation in Uganda.
Dauda’s recent focus is on sexuality and politics in comparative perspective. The most recent project is centered on the study of gender and moral regulation in liberal democracies comparatively. The study is aimed at understanding the role of the state in moral regulation historically as well as in contemporary politics and the implications for gender identity and equality. Current research is focused on the ideational dimension of public policy and more specifically on how powerful symbols of childhood in relation to adulthood (generation) shape and are shaped by the recent legislation on the age of sexual consent in Canada, the UK and the US.
