About this Podcast
HOST: Welcome to our podcast, today we have Dr. Sofia Santos, an expert in gender and migration studies. She's here to talk about the Certified Specialist Programme in Gender and Migration Dynamics. Dr. Santos, can you tell us what inspired you to create this course? GUEST: Absolutely, I've seen firsthand the complex relationship between gender and migration, and how it impacts societies worldwide. I wanted to create a course that would equip learners with the skills to analyze and address these issues. HOST: That's fascinating. Can you share any current trends in this field that learners can expect to study? GUEST: Certainly, we're seeing a rise in gender-based violence in migration, and there's also a growing need for gender analysis of migration policies. These are just a few of the topics we cover in the course. HOST: Those are important issues that need to be addressed. What challenges have you faced in teaching this subject? GUEST: One challenge is the interdisciplinary nature of the field. It requires a solid foundation in both gender studies and migration studies. But that's also what makes it so rewarding. HOST: Where do you see the future of gender and migration studies? GUEST: I believe it will become increasingly relevant as we continue to see large-scale migration. Our goal is to equip learners with the skills to make a positive impact on the lives of migrants worldwide. HOST: That's a powerful mission. Thank you, Dr. Santos, for sharing your insights with us today. The Certified Specialist Programme in Gender and Migration Dynamics is a comprehensive course that provides learners with an in-depth understanding of these complex issues. Thank you for tuning in, and we'll see you in the next episode.
