Global Classroom

Over the past few weeks I've been a part of a 'global classroom' where students and faculty focused on urban issues in contested space from three areas meet regularly via video conference to discuss the issues each place is facing. Groups from here in Belfast, Chicago and Pretoria, South Africa have met three times in the past few weeks to briefly introduce the unique urban conditions found in each city, specifically as it relates to historically rooted sectarian division and racial or ethnic segregation. More information about our conversations and efforts can be found at this blog address.
