What began as a dream is now official: I am a Master of Development Studies with merit. It may bear a stronger resemblance to a business letter than a diploma, but I'll take it. Behind this mere piece of paper is a year and a half of my life, and hopefully my future, in the form of the following:- Development: Critical Perspectives (A and B)
- Human Rights: Peace and Justice
- Key Issues in Peace and Conflict Studies
- Peace Through Tourism
- Politics of the World Economy
- Professional Practice in Development
- Rethinking Poverty
There were too many choices and only eight slots, but I'm satisfied with my selections. If nothing else, I have a foundation for further study. It was a challenging course of study, both academically and intellectually. Many of my world view assumptions were challenged, many altered, others reinforced, but all were strengthened with information, logic and reasoning.
Perhaps the most important thing I learned is that I have a lot more to learn.
