Seeing, Thinking and Doing PACE Internationally - PACE360

This unit offers students new ways of seeing, thinking and doing in an international context. The unit provides students with the opportunity to enrol in an academic unit outside of their discipline and engage with an international community and professional organisation through mutually beneficial activities. To undertake an international PACE activity, students can apply for an existing pre-approved activity run through PACE International.

The unit prepares students to experience cross-cultural contexts and gain a greater awareness of issues of power, wealth, ethical practice, multiple perspectives that operate within a complex set of economic, political, environmental and cultural dynamics shaping how we see, think and do. Through a range of modules on reflective and ethical practice, development and poverty, students are challenged to think more deeply about their own assumptions and perspectives and to recognise different ways of knowing, seeing, doing and being. This unit prepares and challenges students to make the most of their experience and reflect on their role in contributing to partner objectives and their own learning.

Please contact PACE International via paceinternational@mq.edu.au for more information about the unit and how to apply.
