Course Title:
Towards Better Care and Welfare: Let's Stick Together
Course Number:
S_TBCW
Course Description:
Issues around care and welfare are often complex, including social inequality, conflicting values and expectations, and are therefore often referred to as wicked problems. In this course, we will learn about the main concepts and theories on care and welfare in the different social science disciplines (sociology, organisation science, public administration). We will discuss how integrating these perspectives might result in a better understanding of the care and welfare field. We will apply this theoretical knowledge and work together in smaller groups of students on solving a real-life issue in the domain of care and welfare using an interdisciplinary approach.
