IC 204 - CE/HUM Artistic Peacebuilding

4.00 credits.

(Creative Expression Core Course and Humanities Core Course)
The conflicts today are intersectional, complex, and interactive. The models and frameworks used to address and ‘solve’ these problems need to be equally reflective of this reality. Art, be it poetry, literature, theatre, film, music, and/or dance, has the expressive capacity to illuminate these intersectional, complex, and seemingly intractable conflicts. This course proposes to structure an investigation of multiple disciplines through the framework of symbols, processes, and practices of creating peace.
