Communication for Development and Social Change is an advanced undergraduate course that explores the role of communication in promoting sustainable development and positive social transformation. The course examines key theories, concepts, and practices of development communication, with a strong emphasis on participatory approaches, community engagement, and culturally appropriate communication strategies.
Students will critically analyze how communication processes influence social, economic, and political development outcomes, particularly in rural and marginalized communities. The course also highlights the importance of inclusive communication in addressing issues such as poverty, gender inequality, health, education, environmental sustainability, and governance.
