LASC: Latin America Development Issues Course

The Latin America Solidarity Center (LASC) is running a Latin American Development Issues Course in Cork, in conjunction with the UCC Department of Spanish, Portuguese and Latin American Studies, with support from Irish Aid.

This course will start on 10 April, and run each Tuesday evening from 6.00-8.00pm at University College Cork for four weeks. 

Participants will acquire a general understanding of Latin American social, political, historical and economic developments as well as more detailed information about topics of contemporary significance, such as environmental threats, gender issues, indigenous and human rights, social movements and popular resistance.

The course is free but numbers are limited. Find out more here

In June, a delegation from our Erasmus+ partner organisation LAPAS (Latvian Platform for Development Cooperation) visited Dublin for a two-day learning and exchange visit hosted by IDEA. The visit was part of an ongoing collaboration with LAPAS to strengthen quality global citizenship education (GCE) in Ireland and Latvia, using the IDEA Code of Good Practice as a framework. You can find out more about the Erasmus+ project here.
