Education and International Development
The world is now facing serious problems such as conflict, food crisis, poverty and inequality, discrimination and prejudice based on class, gender, race, disability etc. In order to resolve these issues and realize a sustainable, diverse and inclusive society, the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)" were adopted at the United Nations Summit in September 2015. Education, in particular, is envisioned as a key to achieve the SDGs.
Within this context, this course aims to examine the role and challenge of education in achieving the SDGs through exploring the initiatives taken by various actors (government, schools, corporates, NGOs, etc.) in Global North as well as Global South.
This course will first introduce students to new opportunities and emerging issues seen from pre-school to higher education in Global North and Global South (particularly, South Asia). Students will have the opportunity to interact with experts working in education through a field visit and a guest lecture in the middle of the course. At the end of the course, students will make a recommendation for a policy, system or practice for education in Global North/ Global South to achieve SDGs.
