International Organizations for Sustainable Development in the 21st Century

This course provides students with exposure to the particularities and challenges characterising the work of International Organizations in the 21st century. It is not a theoretical course on the fundamentals of international law and the structures of international organizations or sustainability science (which are covered by other related courses, but a practice-oriented course focusing on the concrete issues of International Organisations.
In this course, we will first analyze in depth the structure and functioning of international organizations and understand how they contribute to global efforts for sustainable development. Then, students will learn from the firsthand experience of invited expertsfrom several international organizations. In the latter part of the course, students will practice the lessons for the analysis of complex sustainable challenges (involving more than a single SDG). Finally, students are expected to be able to elaborate a proposal for an action plan for an international organization, including their own contribution if there would be to follow a career in such an organization.
