DESCRIPTION

The aim of this course is to provide students with the tools necessary to adopt a global perspective of diversity through the exploration of narratives and storytelling. The course will review relevant concepts related to diversity, inclusion, equity and belonging, along with identity markers on an international scale by analyzing the representation of diversity in Barcelona, Europe along with in the US.

The investigation of narratives will allow students to identify diversity by highlighting the stories of disenfranchised groups while also looking at the complex role identity plays in international contexts. The course will also explore the utilization of alternative narratives in diversity studies and how said narratives shed light on social stigma, marginalization and dominant culture. Upon completion of the course students will develop the skills necessary to foster inclusion in international and domestic settings through the implementation of inclusive language techniques, intercultural communication, and responsible leadership.
