International Advisory Board
Since its inception the Master's of Arts in International Development Studies (MAIDS) programme has benefited from the advice and experience of a number of prominent scholars, who form the programme’s International Advisory Board. Although this body has not met on a formal or regular basis, it remains an indispensable resource for the programme. Some members of the advisory board, including Jomo Kwame Sundaram, Jun Nishikawa, and Walden Bello have given lectures and seminars to the students. In the near furture MAIDS intends to foster closer collaboration with the advisory board.
