Around 10% of the global population still lives at or below the $2.15 poverty line. How can we progress further, what are the major bottlenecks, and who are the key actors? The course discusses these questions from different scientific perspectives based on recently published books. Participants learn about and reflect on the potential of basic income models, impact and sustainable investment approaches, and China\u2019s development model. Critically discussing books on these topics with various experts from academia and practice will broaden participants\u2019 views on contemporary debated approaches to reducing global poverty and provide opportunities for further development.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Key topics:<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Poverty in the 21st century<\/li>\n\n\n<li>Universal basic income<\/li>\n\n\n<li>Impact investment<\/li>\n\n\n<li>China\u2019s development model<\/li>\n\n\n<li>Political economy<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Duration: <\/strong>12\/03\u201313\/03\/2025 + 1 day independent preparation work<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">An online edition, only for CAS students living abroad, will be offered on 14\/03\/2025 + 2 days additional individual work<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Teaching format: <\/strong>Blended<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>ECTS points: <\/strong>2<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Examination: <\/strong>Assignment completed during the course.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Course fee: <\/strong>CHF 570<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Lecturers:<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/nadel.ethz.ch\/people\/team\/patel.html\" rel=\"noopener\">Shruti Patel<\/a>, NADEL<\/li>\n\n\n<li>Guest lecturers<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For more information please visit <a href=\"https:\/\/nadel.ethz.ch\/\" rel=\"noopener\">nadel.ethz.ch<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/registration.nadel.ethz.ch\/index.php?act=login\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Registration starts 4th of November 2024.<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><br\/><em>Photo credit: iStock\/fivepointsix<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>There has been considerable progress in reducing poverty over the last decades, but a world free of extreme poverty (SDG 1) is still far from reach.
