Course Description:
Provides an experiential-based introduction to the practical challenges of
refugee and immigrant resettlement and integration and to the development
of effective policies and implementation strategies to address them. Students
will be placed with a community-based organization working with
immigrants and refugees 10-12 hours a week and attend (weekly or
biweekly) seminar class meetings to integrate their onsite learning
experience and responsibilities with discussions of assigned readings and
relevant concepts in participatory action research and diaspora studies. Seminar meetings will be organized around enrolled students' existing class schedules. |
