Global Perspectives in Peace: An Independent Studies Course

PEAC 205 Global Perspectives in Peace: An independent Studies Course provides an opportunity for students to learn about peace, justice and related topics from a practical, local to global, and/or cross-cultural perspective through self-initiated travel abroad or self-initiated contact with a peace related NGO. For example, as part of this course, students may participate in one of two international peace institutes (Mindanao Peace Building Institute in the Philippines and African Peace Building Institute in Zambia) with which Selkirk College has a partnership. Alternatively, students may design their own independent international peace and justice learning experience, with support, as needed, from the instructor.
