Course description
Brokering Development equips students with the necessary knowledge and skills to be successful leaders in development. Students will explore the principles and practice of adaptive management and will have the opportunity to apply their learning to current 'wicked problems' in development. Course learning will be situated within the broad historical context of development theory and students will gain a critical appreciation of different analytical and disciplinary approaches to development. The course will go on to equip students with the skills and confidence necessary to effectively navigate through complex development challenges in a range of institutional and cultural contexts, in order to broker positive change. There is a strong emphasis on real-world case studies and drawing out the experiences and perspectives of the student cohort.
