Year-round course (two semesters)
International politics Nepal
Do you want a better understanding of the world, or maybe you're considering working internationally? A four-week study trip to Nepal to learn more about the important topics and put things into perspective.
Understanding the world
In a world where important events have a short life span in the media and many fight for our attention, it is important to recognize the big and important lines, and try to understand why the world's countries and leaders act as they do.
What is their history, what conditions and rules govern them, and what do they really want to achieve? With knowledge, we can challenge the root causes of poverty and war, and find our way to make a positive contribution. We fight discouragement with knowledge and concrete examples of things that work.
Variation in teaching and methods
There are many ways to engage and learn. Inspiring lectures, spontaneous and prepared discussions, films, projects and information work are just some of the ways we learn. Variety and exploring new ways of working and challenging ourselves is important.
If the world seems chaotic, walks in the woods, in the mountains and on the sea can be a nice break during this year and the years to come. Hiking is part of the method on the line because it provides variety and mastery is important. We use nature as a classroom.
On short trips here and there throughout the year, we also learn practical skills for experiences and mastery, as well as appreciating the nature we are so dependent on. Hiking is also a great arena for focusing on and discussing what interests us, having a good time and getting to know each other better.
The study trip in the fall goes to Nepal. In the spring we go to Oslo and Copenhagen.
