Teaching in Uganda for Prowibo! (Day 2) || Dr Akbar Saeed

In August 2019, I travelled to Uganda for Professors Without Borders (Prowibo) as a volunteer on their project at African Rural University (ARU) in Kagadi, Western Uganda.

I designed and facilitated 'Exploring Ethics': an exciting, ten-day, interactive course for undergrads, alum, and faculty.  

It provided learners with a platform to build and refine essential communication skills while examining theories of ethics, moral development, clashes between ethical systems, and ethics in the
workplace. The course was centred on experiential learning, practical exercises and projects grounded in real-life scenarios.  

It's Day 2 and I turned the spotlight on my amazing colleague and fellow Prowibo volunteer, Dr Akbar Saeed from Wilfred Laurier University in Canada and the Tshepo Institute for the Study of Contemporary Africa.  His course focused on Leading, Sustaining, and Accelerating Social Change - a gem for these rural development students and change makers!
