Description: | Learn to critically analyze problems of poverty, exploring how the economic disadvantages suffered by some communities develop in relation to the advantages enjoyed by others. Given the interdisciplinary character of Global Development Studies, students are strongly encouraged to situate and analyse global poverty in relation to differences arising across a broad range of economic, social, political, environmental, and cultural factors. Particular emphasis is placed on aiding students to understand how they themselves may participate in the work to overcome global inequalities, at home and abroad. |
