Master of Community Development

A Master of Community Development is for those wanting to make a difference through positive change to make their neighbourhood a better place. This course will introduce you to the community development ideas and practices used to create and foster community-led change in settings around Australia and beyond, like Anastasia who took her learnings from the course to make change in her home country, Indonesia. This course is designed for community work practitioners and graduates with an interest in moving into emerging fields that embrace the ideas and practices of community development, and want to broaden their knowledge substantially through further postgraduate studies.You'll study real and living community projects that build on cultural strength in remote areas, urban agriculture and sustainability projects, grassroots creative arts projects, activism work and much more. Combine case studies, documentaries, films and other creative digital forms that showcase examples of community work and attend workshops designed to teach creative ways of getting the community involved.
