CYCC 3900

This course explores child and youth care practices from a global perspective and examines how ideas about childhood, adolescence, and family are conceptualized across international landscapes. Students will examine how cultural, social, political, and economic contexts shape approaches to care, advocacy, and interventions for children, youth, and families worldwide. Students will analyze international models of care and consider issues related to social justice, inequality, human rights, and global health, particularly as they intersect with migration and settlement. The course also investigates how globalizing forces shape the lives and perspectives of young people, their families, and local communities.
