This course enables you to learn how anthropological ideas and approaches are vital for understanding the environmental, social, and economic crises of the contemporary world. It teaches how to engage with local knowledge and community-based approaches, rather than rely on global blueprints for sustainable development. The course is taught by an active, interdisciplinary team involved in world-class research on development issues. We offer comparative knowledge about achieving environmental and social sustainability through participatory approaches and active collaborations with projects for empowerment in the Global South. Geographical areas of expertise include Sub-Saharan Africa, South America, South Asia, South-East Asia, the Middle East, Europe, and Melanesia. Staff also help students connect with Durhams excellent research communities such as the Institute of Hazard, Risk and Resilience, and the Durham Energy Institute.
