This course will provide nuanced understandings on the international discourse, agendas, and the diverse environments that underlie the foundation for the multilateral negotiations on the United Nations level. The course will cover both case studies and in-depth interpretations on the various UN regulations. We will study the evolution from the original UN Charter articles to the development of today’s Sustainable Development Goals. Under the lead of SDG 16 (peace, justice and strong institutions), the course will include case studies involving security, environmental, economic issues. The programme will offer students an exclusive access to the UN documentary A Call for Peace and we will examine a wide array of research and studies on the topics of peacebuilding and peacekeeping process.
