The course starts with really valuable insights into main trends of modern IO management, but goes on with questionable points on the HR mainstreams. The interviews might be helpful, although the question is not always answered. 50% of video lectures are written/narrated in absolutely non-understandable language (for non-native speakers), the speed is not adjusted to the listener, it is therefore much more helpful to read the transcript. The true value of the quizzes doesn´t require any critical thinking - the tasks are mostly oriented towards "choose three trends" or "choose the relevant..." etc. Final quiz can be easily done without any preparatory work or going through the materials of the week. The absence of the literature on the topics discussed is another minus. The quizzes themselves haven´t been checked for spelling etc., there was even one case when the question was asked twice within one quiz (week 3 or 4, can not quite remember).

This course provides a general and accessible academic introduction to SDGs in all its facets. A highly interdisciplinary team of experts offers their insight into the intricacies of the matter.

The emergence of the SDGs and each goal were critically reflected upon.

I have acquired an understanding of how the SDGs relate to addressing global challenges such as inequality, climate change, poverty, unsustainable consumption and production, peace and security. The course has helped me to reflect on the challenges with which the SDGs are confronted, giving a very realistic outlook on the SDGs I find the couse really excellent and a great way to reflect critically on the 17 goals. It also inspiring me to think about how we can reform, adapt and continue making progress. Thank you.

A well thought out program, very detailed, full of information. I learnt a great deal from this course, I would gladly recommend it for anyone who is passionate about International Development.

This course have help me take more critical decision and a closer look on how international systems work.

This course provides participants with the opportunity to explore the multifaceted concept of international development in order to be able to interpret and lead its challenges, opportunities and constant evolutions. Starting from an in-depth analysis of the current international development architecture, its key actors and trends, the course then illustrates the main international organizations' governance systems; identifies their funding and financing tools necessary to implement development programs and achieve sustainable development goals; and explains how to effectively leverage on human capital to drive organizational success and be ‘fit for purpose’ in an ever changing international development scenario.

La Agenda 2030 es un paso positivo hacia un desarrollo global más justo y sostenible. Su enfoque integral, que une a todos los países en torno a 17 Objetivos de Desarrollo Sostenible (ODS), promueve la cooperación, la equidad y el respeto al medio ambiente. Sin embargo, su implementación enfrenta serios desafíos: falta de financiamiento, desigualdades persistentes y compromiso político limitado. A pesar de los avances, muchos países no están en camino de cumplir los ODS para 2030. En resumen, la Agenda 2030 es una hoja de ruta valiosa, pero necesita más acción concreta, coordinación internacional y voluntad política real para convertirse en una realidad.

a Agenda 2030, adoptada en 2015, busca erradicar la pobreza, reducir las desigualdades y proteger el planeta. La gestión del desarrollo internacional implica planificar, financiar y ejecutar políticas y programas que contribuyan a esos objetivos. Enfoques principales: Cooperación multilateral: colaboración entre países y organismos internacionales. Financiación sostenible: combinación de recursos públicos, privados y filantrópicos. Innovación tecnológica y digitalización: herramientas clave para mejorar la eficiencia y la transparencia. Enfoque basado en resultados: medir el impacto real de las intervenciones.

I strongly recommend this course able to provide you with a deeper knowledge of international development, the actors involved, the funding governance mechanism in international development, the funding and innovative financing aspects that are crucial to sustaining the activities and mandates of IOs today and in the future, the shift from personal administration to strategic agent management, as well as about what is needed today to succeed as a professional serving international development, with the participation of many experts about the topics.

Thank you to Greta Nasi Alexander Hiedemann Luca Brusati & Coursera for the course 🧶Management of International Development: Towards Agenda 2030 by the Università Bocconi.

We acquired a system-wide perspective on international development and categorize the main actors of the global environment and its strategic landscape and how to manage the international organizations’ multicultural environment and leverage human capital through a strategic approach.
