Community Engagement Practice

COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT PRAC

The need for more effective and equitable engagement with communities has become increasingly evident to public health professionals in recent years. Now, more than ever, the importance of developing deeper and more engaged academic/institutional-community partnerships is necessary to address systems of structural inequity. However, developing these relationships requires not only knowledge of equity-based partnering formats, but the cultivation of complex skill sets that allow public health practitioners to most fully develop relationships across all phases of community collaboration. Two valuable forms of community engagement that public health practitioners and students can make use of are community-based participatory research and service learning, which are the focus of this course. Additionally, this course acknowledges that community engagement is a diverse space where people from a variety of professional and personal backgrounds come together. For many years, people working in the technology space have recognized the benefits of “matrixed teams,” similarly over the past few years the notion of interprofessionalism has become an important and required aspect of allied health and public health professional training. Research has shown that bringing together students from two or more professions to learn about, from, and with each other is extremely effective in all forms of collaboration (within research and intervention teams and with communities) and ultimately lead to improved health outcomes. According to the World Health Organization, “Once students understand how to work interprofessionally, they are ready to enter the workplace as a member of the collaborative practice team. This is a key step in moving health systems from fragmentation to a position of strength.” Pinsert course number – insert studio name 2 of 24 The overall goal of this course is for students to learn about and begin to practice the tenets of three frameworks: Interprofessional Education (IPE), Service-Learning (SL), and Community?Based Participatory Research (CBPR). With regard to interprofessional engagement, the course will provide students with a solid understanding of four key IPE competencies: roles/responsibilities, teams/teamwork, ethics/values, and communication. Complementing this, the course will introduce and integrate SL pedagogy to prepare students to engage in community service projects. The SL model prioritizes three aspects of project implementation: student learning, direct attenti

DESIGNING NEEDS AND ASSETS ASSESSMENT

DESIGN NEED & ASSET ASSES

The first essential step in the process of designing successful public health programs is to understand the needs that motivate these programs and the assets that can be brought to bear on developing them. The purpose of this course is to enable students to perform specific steps in a needs and assets assessment and to plan how to facilitate participation by those who will be affected by a resulting program. The assessment process encompasses two main components: an epidemiologic, behavioral, and social analysis of a community and population at risk for a health-related problem; and an effort to understand the character of the community, its members, and its strengths.

 

At the start of the course, we will discuss pre-assessment work which includes planning to put together a work group for planning the needs and assets assessment. We will touch on essential elements of encouraging participation, work-group management, and culturally sensitive practice. Simultaneously, we will create a logic model of a selected health problem using Step 1 of Intervention Mapping which employs an adapted version of the PRECEDE part of the PRECEDE-PROCEED model. Using this model, students will fully define their population and context for their assessments, posing questions, and choosing methods and data sources for completing each part of the logic model of the problem selected (heretofore referred to as the Logic of Risk). At the same time, we will cover various approaches and data sources for assessing a community’s strengths/assets. Finally, we will discuss post-assessment tasks including setting priorities and setting program goals for health and quality of life outcomes.

Digital Storytelling: Why Public Health

DIG STORYTELL: WHY PUBLIC

This six-week interactive online workshop will teach students the fundamental concepts and skills of digital storytelling. Digital stories are multimedia movies that combine photographs, video, animation, sound, music, and text with a narrative voice. Digital storytelling can be a powerful, multi-dimensional tool for community-based public health program enhancement, strategic communication, and advocacy (Hinyard & Kreuter, 2007). Students will share first-person narratives about public health passions and/or experiences and turn them into videos that can be used for training, community mobilization, advocacy, and more. SOSCP6776 – Digital Storytelling 2 of 10 The workshop will be led by facilitators from, and with a curriculum designed by, StoryCenter. StoryCenter is an international non-profit organization that assists people with the use of digital media tools to craft and share stories that lead to learning, action, and positive change. For the past 20 years, StoryCenter has been supporting researchers, educators, social justice organizers, and advocates in understanding how first-person narrative and participatory digital media production can advance a broad range of social justice and public health goals.

Global Political Economy and Governance

Global Political Econ and

The “liberal international order,” which until recently appeared inevitable to many observers, faces numerous challenges that have erupted in the past few years—including war, heightened superpower rivalry, the imposition of sanctions and tariffs, and economic stagnation. To this list, we must add a series of preexisting conditions, such as ballooning inequality and persistent North-South divides, the climate crisis, rising nationalist and xenophobic sentiment, and increasing support—on both the left and right—for protectionism and skepticism of “free trade” and (global) capitalism itself. In turn, the very utility (and desirability) of global-governance mechanisms and institutions is increasingly being called into question. 

This course centers around analyzing the political economy and structure of the contemporary world order, its underlying logics, origins and inherently political nature, how it is (and is not) governed, and how power is exercised therein by actors including states, corporations, international institutions, and even individuals. As we will highlight throughout the semester, issues related to global political economy and governance shape the lives of people all over the world, including our own. 

Specifically, we will discuss the origins and consolidation of today’s “liberal international order,” especially vis-à-vis its economic dimensions and the rise of global neoliberalisms, along with its trials, tribulations, and challengers, its “governance” and spatial logics, and the various forms of backlash against it that are currently proliferating. We will also carefully analyze the role of race, class, and gender in global economics and politics, as well as the persistence of colonial legacies, and the ongoing relevance of North-South and other inequalities. Additionally, we will discuss how issues such as the climate crisis, U.S.-China relations, and technological change are shaping the future trajectory of the global political-economic order (or orders). 

To shed light on these and related matters, we will critically engage with the contributions of a diverse and interdisciplinary array of classic and contemporary thinkers who have sought to
theorize
the global economy, global governance, and world order, as well as the dynamic interplay between global politics and economics, in different ways.

Ethics in Public Policy

MIA & MPA Ethics Core. 
This course investigates how ethical considerations shape, complicate, and often introduce dilemmas into the work of policymaking. It asks what justice, democracy, and responsibility demand in concrete policy contexts—should political leaders prioritize stability or accountability in post-conflict settings? Should elected officials follow their moral convictions even when doing so goes against the preferences of their constituents? Should public servants uphold the law when it conflicts with their moral principles? When is it right to work within flawed systems to achieve change, and when is it better to act from the outside? Through a mix of theoretical readings and case studies, students will learn to balance political, institutional, and ethical considerations, develop arguments for their moral choices, and advocate effectively for their policy decisions. The course is designed to cultivate reflective practitioners who can identify moral dilemmas in public policy, weigh competing values, and articulate their ethical positions in ways that are both critical and constructive.

SEMINAR IN STAGE MANAGEMENT III

MUSICAL STRUCTURE

Musicals, especially those that have traditionally originated on Broadway, are complex pieces of machinery that are designed to produce a variety of energies in the theater. When taken collectively, those energies constitute the aesthetic of the experience. As with plays, stage managers are charged with coordinating all of a musical’s production elements. However, stage managers should also be able to view a musical from every angle; that is, read it intelligently and analyze it dramatically so they can accurately gauge their contribution to the overall aesthetic. This course seeks to provide stage managers with a customized template to do that: in other words, how to connect what’s on the page and the stage to their own standard methodologies, cue calling, and the CEO/COO perspective. In the contemporary professional landscape, these are important tools that will help them optimize their work on musicals.

Priorities in Global Public Health

PRIORITIES IN GLOBAL PUB

Many of the leading causes of mortality and morbidity disproportionately affect the populations of low-income countries. This course uses a multidisciplinary approach to analyse the emergence, justificiation and success of current global health priorities including reproductive health, child health water, infectious diseases, noncommunicable disease, mental health, and public health in complex emergencies (man made and Environmental). Students will learn to examine the social, economic, and political factors contributing to the rise of these global health priorities, learn about the different suggested approaches and tools for managing them as well be involved in the development of strategies for their solution. This course builds on Introduction to Global Health" (P6811) by demonstrating the application of major concepts and principles that govern the practice of global health in resource-poor countries."

Engaging on the Ground: Contemporary Tib

Contemporary Tibetan Cine

This 7-sess­­ion master class examines the craft of thematic expression and social engagement by filmmakers who are successfully bringing non-dominant voices to the screen and working in regions with people whose stories are rarely heard. Through film screenings, lectures, critical analysis, and Q&A with guest filmmakers, the class aims to raise awareness, foster discussion, and instruct on visual storytelling techniques that integrate themes of social change, cultural heritage, and environmental transformations in Asia today, with a special focus on the Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau in China.

The class opens by surveying the emergence and development of the Tibetan New Wave Cinema movement, represented by filmmakers such as Pema Tseden, Sonthar Gyal, Lhapal Gyal, Dukar Tserang, Khyentse Norbu, Tenzin Seldon, Khashem Gyal, and others. Together, we will examine how Tibetan filmmakers bring lived realities, identity, spiritual traditions, and social tensions to the screen. We will analyze narrative strategies, visual poetics, and the ethical responsibilities of representing communities "on the ground."

This class also explores the intersection of cinema and mindfulness. Through selected films, readings, and reflective practices, students will engage with film not only as a medium of storytelling but also as a space for introspection, contemplation, emotional awareness, and shared experience.
 Mindfulness here is not confined to meditation but understood as a broader, integrative approach to being attentive, ethical, and present at every stage of filmmaking. It is a way of honoring the people, places, and processes that make cinema meaningful.

Altered States: Cultures of Intoxication

Altered States Intoxic Ad

Altered States: Cultures of Intoxication and Addiction 

This seminar investigates the literary and philosophical treatment of intoxication and addiction from Romanticism to critical theory to contemporary recovery literature with an eye toward the  Germanophone context. Examining intoxication not merely as a pathological or medical  phenomenon but as a site of existential inquiry and aesthetic experimentation, the course explores  how thinkers and writers have grappled with states of excess, compulsion, altered consciousness, enlightenment, and the dissolution of the self. We will situate these discussions within three important historical developments: 1) the colonial drug trade, 2) drug production in Germany,  which was the site of the synthesis and manufacture of morphine, heroin, and codeine in the  nineteenth century as well as in Switzerland, which was the site of the discovery of LSD and psilocybin in the twentieth century, and 3) the medicalization of the discourse around addiction  and drug treatment programs.  

Points of emphasis include the metaphysics of intoxication, the aesthetics of fragmentation, the  tension between autonomy and compulsion, and the role of intoxication in critiques of bourgeois  rationality, modernity, and capitalism. We will engage with a range of genres—poetry, fiction,  philosophy, psychoanalysis, memoir, and recovery literature—as well as relevant secondary  scholarship and critical theory. Discussions and materials will be in English.

Grad Sem IV in Sound Art & Related Media

The Graduate Seminar in Sound Art and Related Media is designed to create a space that is inclusive yet focused on sound as an art form and a medium. Class time is structured to support, reflect, and challenge students as individual artists and as a community. The course examines the medium and subject of sound in an expanded field, investigating its constitutive materials, exhibition and installation practices, and its ethics in the 21st century. The seminar will focus on the specific relations between tools, ideas, and meanings and the specific histories and theories that have arisen when artists engage with sound as a medium and subject in art. The seminar combines discussions of readings and artworks with presentations of students' work and research, as well as site visits and guest lectures.

 

While the Columbia Visual Arts Program is dedicated to maintaining an interdisciplinary learning environment where students are free to use and explore different mediums while also learning to look at, and critically discuss, artwork in any medium, we are equally committed to providing in-depth knowledge concerning the theories, histories, practices, tools and materials underlying these different disciplines. We offer Graduate Seminars in different disciplines, or combinations of disciplines, including moving image, new genres, painting, photography, printmaking, sculpture, as well as in Sound Art in collaboration with the Columbia Music Department through their Computer Music Center. These Discipline Seminars are taught by full-time and adjunct faculty, eminent critics, historians, curators, theorists, writers, and artists.

ARTIST MENTORSHIP / VALS IV

This required Visual Arts core MFA curriculum course, comprising two parts, allows MFA students to deeply engage with and learn directly from a wide variety of working artists who visit the program each year.

Lecture Series
The lecture component, taught by an adjunct faculty member with a background in art history and/or curatorial studies, consists of lectures and individual studio visits by visiting artists and critics over the course of the academic year. The series is programmed by a panel of graduate Visual Arts students under the professor's close guidance. Invitations are extended to artists whose practice reflects the interests, mediums, and working methods of MFA students and the program. Weekly readings assigned by the professor provide context for upcoming visitors. Other course assignments include researching and preparing introductions and discussion questions for each of the visitors. Undergraduate students enrolled in Visual Arts courses are encouraged to attend and graduate students in Columbia's Department of Art History are also invited. Following each class-period the conversation continues informally at a reception for the visitor. Studio visits with Visual Arts MFA students take place on or around the week of the artist or critic's lecture and are coordinated and assigned by lottery by the professor.

Artist Mentorship
The Artist-Mentor component allows a close and focused relationship to form between a core group of ten to fifteen students and their mentor. Students are assigned two mentors who they meet with each semester in two separate one-week workshops. The content of each workshop varies according to the Mentors’ areas of expertise and the needs of the students. Mentor weeks can include individual critiques, group critiques, studio visits, visits to galleries, other artist's studios, museums, special site visits, readings, and writing workshops. Here are a few descriptions from recent mentors:
• During Mentor Week we will individually and collectively examine our assumptions and notions about art. What shapes our needs and expectations as artists and the impact of what we do?
• Our week will include visits to exhibition spaces to observe how the public engages the art. Throughout, we will consider art's ability to have real life consequences and the public's desire to personally engage with and experience art without mediation.

Lit & Indp Publishing Lat

This course, focused on the phenomenon of independent publishing in Latin America, begins with a review of the history of these publishing houses on the continent, their relationship with the popular press, and the avant-garde movements (César Vallejo, Vicente Huidobro). It will also explore the experiments of the second half of the 20th century (Ulises Carrión, Mirtha Dermisache). With this background, we will study the phenomenon in the 21st century, from "cartonera" publishing houses to self-published publications and self-managed projects. Based on the concept of bibliodiversity, we will problematize writing practices and their circulation in unequal societies, with differential access to literacy, but in which literature remains a culturally relevant practice. We will study books by César Aira, Verónica Gerber-Bicecci, Giselle Beiguelman, Mario Bellatin, among others. We will also study the extensive reflection on the independent phenomenon through authors such as E. Schierloh, M. Rabasa, Ana Gallego, Hernán López-Winne, and many others.
