This module is designed to equip students with the practical skills and research methodologies needed to address contemporary issues in world politics. It encourages a multidisciplinary approach, preparing students to engage with knowledge production in academic and non-academic spaces, such as think-tanks and social movements. Addressing the complexity of issues like climate change, migration, artificial intelligence, global human rights implementation, terrorism, and the continuing presence of colonial legacies increasingly demands skills in collaborative working practices and applying knowledge from multiple disciplines. The module responds to this demand by providing an innovative approach to social science research practices that combines methods training with collaborative problem-solving workshops and other creative activities.
