Course description: The United Nations defines community development as a process where community members come together to take collective action and generate solutions to common problems. While migration is more a natural phenomenon in response to social, economic, political, and environmental drivers than a ‘common problem,’ this describes the emergence of the Kino Border Initiative and its work with migrants in Nogales. This variable credit course immerses you in the complexities of migration in the borderlands, with a focus on making humane, just, workable migration between the US and Mexico a reality. The immersion also provides a personal lens through which to critically reflect on your own aspirations for social change and global citizenship.
