Curricular Development

  • Democratizing Work after the Pandemic OSUN Course
    This course rethinks and reimagines work as a democratic project in the post-pandemic world. Working people are not simple ‘resources.’ That was a central lesson of the economic fallout from the COVID-19 pandemic. The course examines why economic well-being and economic security cannot be governed by market forces alone. It evaluates how and why existing economic structures exacerbate rampant inequalities, erode the very foundations of economic stability, and threaten the lives of the most vulnerable.
  • Right to Employment OSUN Course
    Right to Employment is an interdisciplinary OSUN course that focuses on social, economic, legal, and policy developments regarding the right to employment, and introduces students to international initiatives and innovative programs. Students read economic analyses, policy proposals, legislative documents, and program reviews. The course can be tailored to the pedagogical and research interests and capacity of each OSUN partner including adjustments for the particular OSUN program, context, and location.
  • Economic Perspectives for Policy Making OSUN Course
    The OSUN Economic Democracy Initiative (EDI) is convening a collaborative workshop for faculty across the OSUN community interested in developing an undergraduate OSUN network course connecting the history of economic thought to contemporary policy debates. This course demonstrates to students how the concerns and topics of classical political economy and early twentieth-century economic thought continue to influence and frame ongoing discussions about economic and social policy.

Certificate in Applied Economic Policy Analysis

OSUN-EDI is launching a new undergraduate Certificate in Applied Economic Policy Analysis. The certificate is designed for the next generation of policymakers committed to the principles of economic stability, shared prosperity, and economic rights by supplementing their economics training with insights from other disciplines. The certificate is designed to provide students with a set of cutting-edge interdisciplinary analytical techniques and theoretical approaches to tackle urgent twenty-first century problems.
