Opportunities: Courses

New MOOC:

The Refugee Law Initiative has launched a Massive Open Online Course (MOOC) entitled "Refugees in the 21st Century." Here is the description:

"This MOOC provides insight into the refugee phenomenon as one of the most complex, compelling and (arguably) misunderstood features of the 21st century. Taking a global perspective, it will outline the fundamentals of who ‘refugees’ are, where they come from and where they go, as well as delving into the features of the global system for refugee protection and ‘solutions’ for those who have been forcibly displaced. It places the student at the centre of the learning experience through engagement with a range of robust and challenging activities, materials and online peer engagement."

Students who enroll in the 6-week course can work through the materials at their own pace.
