Description
Global Challenges 1 is the first in a two-part sequence that guides students through the identification and exploration of a significant global challenge that will form the foundation of a major project across Global Challenges 1 and 2.
In this subject, students begin by developing advanced skills in critical thinking, argument construction, and evidence evaluation. They explore what constitutes truth in different contexts and how to communicate effectively across diverse audiences.
Students then investigate the scope and complexity of their chosen problem, integrating theoretical frameworks and practical insights to understand its social, political, and ethical dimensions.
