You’re welcome to attend as many of the discussion weeks as you’d like.
Before attending:
Please fill out this 3-question pre-survey (regardless of how many sessions you’re attending). At the end of the series, you’ll be asked to complete a short post-survey, and David will use the results of this to understand the programme’s impact.
Pre-reading (approx 1 hour): please read this blog post: Week 1 - A History of Global Development. We’ll try to structure the session so that those who haven’t had time to complete the pre-reading are still able to contribute, but it’ll be a much better experience if you can!
At the start of the session, we’ll pick a few questions—either choosing from those at the bottom of the blog post, or making up our own—to discuss.
