New Global Summer Program Courses at the University of Cape Town
The IARU GSP program expands to 2 new exciting courses at the University of Cape Town: UCT1 Sustainable Water Management in Africa and UCT2 Organized Crime and Violence in Africa.
UCT1: Sustainable Water Management in Africa This course adopts an interdisciplinary approach to examine the current water crises, trends and conditions in developing countries. Further, it addresses the need to derive maximum benefit from each water resource used while incurring minimum burden and the need to secure “new taps” in a water sensitive urban design context.
UCT2: Organized Crime and Violence in Africa This course will take an interdisciplinary approach to interrogating the nature of organized crime in Africa, as well as the means and conditions through which it contributes to violence. Further to this the course will explore possible strategies and mechanisms to reduce such violence.
Applications to the IARU GSP are open until 7 March, with earlier deadlines for UTokyo and NUS students.
