Course Details
NGO 201 is for anyone who would like to understand more about
current issues including the Global Goals for Sustainable Development
and the strategies used by nonprofit-NGOs to deal with them. Each week
we review a different theme and then discuss possible ways to tackle
problems. Activities will help us understand the problems and pressures
people face allowing everyone for a chance to rethink our assumptions
while also learning more. Weekly assignments include online readings and
online research which guide discussion so that class participants will
better understand causes, impacts and connections between of a wide
array of issues. Participants take part in class discussion, group-work
and a final presentation on an issue of their choice. From 2016, NGO 201
will be based on the Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) Global
Campaign. It will also include more activities and less lecture time
than in the past.
Application Deadline for Spring 2016 is Tuesday, January 12th but you can join this class if you apply and pay by Tuesday Jan 26.
