WOBORDER 703 / Practicum 3 unit(s)
This course will provide additional practical experience through the individual re-submission of findings from WWB *702 in the format required to share those findings with different stakeholders. The purpose of this course is to provide students with skills in writing pieces of scientific work for different audiences and developing skills for knowledge transfer and translation. Students will be requested to submit a single paper in the genre provided, which could be, for example, an op-ed piece, policy brief, ministerial briefing note or NGO proposal. The course is self-directed, and must be completed between the end of Term III (at which point the findings from the *702 questions will be complete) and the end of the Summer term.
