Mid-term Question #3

3) a) define structural violence using our readings and also an excellent summary of Farmer and Sen's views on this by Kathleen Ho: http://projects.essex.ac.uk/ehrr/V4N2/ho.pdf.

b) give an example of structural violence in your country (supported by data)

c)  present your dream of what a globally-informed social worker could do about that example (remember to use the readings).

Mid-term Question #2

2. See this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xkFTZcUPjBg&sns=em
Now:

a) use the concepts you learned from Nicholas Kristoff's work to describe the universality in Memory Banda and her friends' struggle for women's human rights.
b) imagine that you were airlifted into Memory Banda's village as a global social worker. What principles and actions would you carry out to support her? Use principles you have learned from the readings and class discussions.
