The learning assessment methods consist of an oral exam, with the assignment of the final grade in thirtieths, regarding the materials published on the e-learning platform (covered in class) and with the presentation and discussion of a project related to the themes of the third sector (built according to the design technique learned during the design module, with materials published on the e-learning platform) and questions on the program covered during the course.
The mastery of the topics covered, the student's critical thinking ability and his/her competence in using learned tools and personal resources in order to solve complex problems, real or hypothetical, will be assessed. The presentation skills and the level of acquisition of specific terminology are also assessed.
For students attending the course, the active participation of the students during the lessons will also be assessed for the purposes of the final assessment.

A module linked to a practical design workshop is also planned.
The course takes place in the first semester, through 50 hours of lessons (8 CFU).
The teaching includes theoretical lessons, with testimonies and insights from experts in the protection of fundamental rights and cooperation and a practical-experiential laboratory on design aimed at strengthening the theoretical knowledge acquired with the development of "soft-skills" and transversal skills for the preparation of projects in competitive funding calls announced by national or European institutions.
The course is divided into thematic modules. A specific module on mass violations of human rights and transitional justice will be conducted with experts from the International Center for Transitional Justice (New York).
The frontal lessons will be integrated and supported by the development of additional teaching materials, published on the e-learning platform, so as to make them accessible to all students and will also make use of multimedia materials.
Office hours: at the end of the lesson.
Students can request office hours at other times or via teams by sending an email to giulia.tiberi@uninsubria.it
