Each year the University of Aarhus offers a postgraduate
spring-term course on "Approaches to Development". The course
is expected to continue in its present format for a number of years
ahead. However, at some point in the future it may undergo minor or
major changes
to allow for further development and generational change.
The main aim of the course is to
increase the participants' knowledge of development issues and work
within a multidisciplinary context.
The immediate objectives of the course are:
-
to describe the political as well as the private and
public institutional frameworks for development assistance and to
introduce the objectives of aid, the background to these objectives
and the pre-conditions for their implementation
-
to acquaint participants with concepts like 'project
cycle' and 'sector program' and with different approaches such as
'blueprint', 'process' and 'participation'.
-
to provide opportunities for students to carry out
in-depth studies of selected topics, i.e. by preparing and
presenting papers and by reviewing papers presented by fellow
students.
The course is intended for students with a clearly
documented interest in development work. Applicants must be enrolled at
a Danish university or other recognised institution or be studying in
Denmark under an exchange programme. Students with a bachelor degree
will be given priority.
