| This course, built in six 4 hours seminaries, will provide a particular lighting on the current debates on international co-operation by centering the glance on the actors and in particular the new local operators of development co-operation ("civil society organizations"). One will seek to replace the acuity of the environmental stakes on the co-operation's diary dominated by the new paradigm of reduction poverty's strategies. One will also tackle the question of sustainable development from concrete case studies related in particular on the projects of fair trade and rural development. |
