 Violence, Gender & Humanitarian Assistance
Spring 2021  20580 002Lecture (3 Units)Open20 / 40Jeanne WardMo 3:30pm - 6:00pm Web-Based Course
 This course will examine key issues, policies, and interventions related to one of the most complex protection and human rights concerns in humanitarian settings: gender-based violence (GBV). Taught by an international expert with 20 years’ experience working on GBV globally, the course will review the scope of violence that women and girls face in conflicts and disasters around the world, as well as the humanitarian structures and programming models that have evolved to address this violence. With a focus on real-life issues and practical knowledge building, the course will not only improve students’ understanding of GBV in humanitarian crises, but also invite students to engage in critical reflection about current challenges and key debates in the GBV field. The course will include presentations by guest lecturers as well as opportunities for students to participate (alongside GBV professionals) in real-time online learning available through humanitarian GBV coordination mechanisms and communities of practice.
 Financial Markets and Monetary Policy
Spring 2021  20644 003Lecture (3 Units)Open7 / 30Stefan RuedigerTuTh 3:30pm - 4:45pm Web-Based Course
 This course looks at the interplay between money, financial markets, financial institutions, and The Federal Reserve and their collective impact on the economy. One key aspect of the course will be to understand the interplay of these institutions during the 2007/8 financial crisis and the CoVid-19 pandemic. As part of this course we will study what money is, analyze the role of the banking industry in the economy, and finally examine the role of the Federal Reserve in managing monetary policy and overseeing the banking system and how its tools have changed over time.
