Section Title:
Int'l Institutions Governance
Section Info:
In this course students explore how a range of regulatory agencies invoke international institutions in the governance of urban conflicts. Specifically, we will study and map how inhabitants of specific cities use international human rights regimes to claim individual and collective claims for urban citizenship and rights to the city. Learning objectives include: understanding the history and current role of international humanitarian institutions in urban governance of cities; identification of key local and trans-local actors claiming citizenship; evaluation of the legitimacy of competing citizenship claims, and; creation of a visually compelling story map argument of a specific case study in a city of the global south.

Placemaking thru Art & Dance
Section Info:
This course focuses on experimental and arts-based methods to understand, represent, and challenge urban conditions of oppression and inequality through the body. As part of the class, students will learn and articulate potentials, values, and ethical principles unique to choreographic, arts-based, and community engagement strategies for social and environmental change in the city involving diverse populations and contexts. The course will promote a reflexive practice and the need to develop cultural competencies to work with diverse communities from a feminist, queer, and decolonial perspective. Students will also learn different tools to bring people together and effect change in their environments.
