Politics and Development in the Middle East 2023

With the tremendous success of the Democratic Education Network, we have embraced a fresh and dynamic approach in designing this module. While the module focuses on the Middle East, the teaching and learning approach is hybrid, involving academics from the University of Westminster and Middle Eastern countries, as well as integrating a field trip to Turkey. To reflect the innovation in this module, we have designed the coursework to give students a new approach by engaging them to write, review, and discuss each other’s blogs during the workshops, present either in London or while they are on the field trip, and write an essay that potentially will be presented at DEN’s annual conference and published in DEN’s annual book.
