Cíle předmětu
The aim of this practical workshop is to provide the students to make use of the theories and approaches that they taught in obligatory and optional courses about sociological and anthropological perspectives about global challenges (especially GLCb1006 and GLCb1009). The course is divided into four blocks in which the students will discuss particular topics, including, but not limited to: Social exclusion and marginalization, global migration in local context, global demographic changes and local responses, processes in urban space. The course will include also excursions and visiting expert from the praxis. The emphasis is put on the students group projects and cultivation of their ability to contribute to the formulation of the potential solutions to global challenges. The role of the applied social research will be discussed and students will use its principles for their group projects.
