CANVAS has led a course at NYU since January of 2013 called “Nonviolent Political Activism.” This course, ideally for students interested in democratization, international development, conflict management, human rights and security studies, focuses on the phenomenon of nonviolent conflict and explores how nonviolent movements are shaping national, regional, and international relations. The course is conducted through a combination of online and on campus sessions. The course is offered at NYU every Spring semester.
