DEVE-2023Working Across Differences
This course explores the challenge of navigating differences in organizations and in the community to improve capacity to collaborate. Students will focus on their own identity and experience of difference in terms of gender, race, culture, religion, sexual orientation, as well as by special ways of learning, creating new ideas, and formulating new worldviews. This course explores how differences are viewed and used to sustain power imbalances. Students will examine the mechanics of oppression and privilege, and various learning techniques that help us work together more equitably, inclusively, and respectfully as allies and agents of change.
