This course guides students to write up previously researched country case studies on the intersection of water risk, copper mining and river basin governance. The intent of the class is to produce a series of high-quality, publishable, inter-connected case studies for academic and practitioner/professional audiences. Students will produce a final case study of some 7000 words in length via a series of three drafts, external peer review, and a public presentation of case study findings to the MIIS community. Students may take this course only by permission of the instructor.
