This newly designed programme explores the contested and highly political nature of debate about contemporary global challenges and responses to them. You will learn theories of and strategies for international development, peacebuilding, poverty reduction, environmental sustainability and economic growth, but you will also examine the tensions between and contentions surrounding policy discourse and practice, interrogating the assumptions behind key terms like globalisation, poverty and sustainable development.
