Department of International Relations · ANU College of Asia and the Pacific
This course aims to bring the students of the master of peace and conflict studies in close contact with practitioners. This course is structured around a series of seminars with different practitioners, giving the opportunity of students to learn from the practitioners' experience. The course will be structured around 3 key lectures across the semester, covering specific themes related to peace and conflict studies (i.e. gender, migration, statebuilding, atrocity prevention) with a specific focus on the Asia-Pacific region. Practitioners will be identified by the course convenor and the teaching team at the Bell School, making use of our list of contacts in Canberra. We will also seek students' input on preferred themes and potentially individuals to invite through a quick survey at the beginning of the semester.
