Description
This session introduces our new module D890 Global development in practice, launching on the award winning FutureLearn platform. Global development is all about the big issues: poverty, inequality,... conflict, climate change. We hear so much about these and other global challenges. It’s sometimes hard to avoid feeling like we’re in a time of crisis and it’s even harder to know what to do. This module tackles the big issues head on, unpacking key themes in global development and equipping students with the knowledge and skills they need to play an active role in bringing about change. In this session we’ll present a brief outline of the module and the exciting prospect of learning on the FutureLearn platform.
