Local and Global Practice - POIR333

The application of disciplinary learning and the writing and speaking skills gained in other units is translated beyond the campus in this unit. Students gain practical experience working with a range of organisations that grapple with issues of politics and international relations in the constrained circumstances of their values and missions: advocacy and lobbying organisations, political consultancies, non-government organisations, local governments, and media and business organisations are some of the bodies that may support the experience that the unit offers. The cohort of the unit share their experiences of the unit in its closing stage and offer their reflections on the study to work transition they have undertaken.
