The objective of the project is to enhance and continue to grow collaborative educational and research activities between the Faculty of International Studies, Hanoi University (HANU FIS) and the School of Geography, University College Dublin (UCD Geography). These activities will centre on a suite of innovative co-produced and co-taught joint educational initiatives and exchanges of instructors and students between our institutions. These activities foreground the study area of development and the environment through a social science and policy-oriented lens, in which our institutions have mutual expertise. The focus will be on developing students’ skillsets in key areas: field-based research project skills; applied geospatial skills, and the technological proficiencies required to examine and address challenges present by development and sustainability research.
Student-led conference is one key activity within Component 1 of the project for joint field research. Hanu students will lead the organization of a conference in which students from UCD and Hanu will present their research through poster presentation.
Objectives
The conference aims to serve as a discussion platform for students to:
