This course provides students an opportunity to learn by providing valuable services to local, national, or international organizations. This model of experiential learning is called organization partner experiences, in which students work in teams on a project that is of relevance to the partner organization. The overarching theme in this course is inclusion through access to public services. Access to public services such as education, health, and public provision of services is one of the most important ways in which disadvantaged populations experience upward socioeconomic mobility. Students will gain insights about inequality of access to public service, conduct critical analysis of current issues, and produce deliverables to understand issues of socio-economic inequality in societies around the world.
