In the spring semester of 2023, the students in my INTL 4240 International Organization (IO) class the University of Georgia are working on advocacy projects* across the whole semester. The project consists of four assignments: an infographic, a blog post, an advocacy letter, and a podcast. Each team learns to use IR literature to figure out an existing problem in an IO, illustrate the issue differently to a broader audience, and write an advocacy letter for organizational reform. With their consent, I present their great works below. Please click the link to see how fantastic their products are!
*Note: Dr. K. Anne Watson designs the advocacy project. Thanks to her creative design and generous sharing, I can use this teaching method in my class.
