CSWP 402 - Social Policy and Social Inclusion

Course Description

Building on SWP 302, this course focuses on approaches and tools for social action and social change, moving students from a theoretical knowledge of social policies to a practical, action-oriented focus on making social claims visible and building program capacity. It examines issues of governance, funding structures, voices, exclusionary processes, and experiences with the social welfare system. The course explores strategies of collaboration and citizen engagement for social inclusion and social change. (SWP 302 and SWP 402 replace former equivalent course SWP 22A/B).
