Africa needs development practitioners in government, business and civil society who understand the complexity of developmental challenges and who have the leadership capacities to design and implement the integrated and multidisciplinary Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
The University of Pretoria’s Master’s in Development Practice (MDP@UP) addresses this need by delivering graduates with the knowledge, leadership competence and technical skills needed to the implement the SDGs.
The one-year MDP@UP uses a hybrid learning approach, introducing participants to the most relevant development theory and practice. This includes online and face-to-face learning, leadership service learning and case study write- up and analysis. The programme is truly multidisciplinary, and focuses on the social sciences, health sciences, management sciences and natural sciences.
The MDP@UP is hosted by the Albert Luthuli Centre for Responsible Leadership and is Africa’s only programme that focuses on building leadership competence needed to implement the SDGs.
