Theory, analysis and practice are presented through a variety of innovative instructional tools developed from popular education and learner-centred approaches to teaching and learning. Throughout the program, students will have the opportunity to develop a variety of important and high-demand skills, including: anti-oppressive and intercultural practice in working with diverse populations (including youth, immigrant communities, Indigenous populations) critical analysis, research and writing group facilitation and leadership individual and group counselling conflict mediation and restorative justice community organizing, activism and development proposal writing and program evaluation policy analysis and rights-based advocacy
