This module will explore issues around anti-oppressive practice in relation to diversity. It will engage
with theoretical and theological perspectives on diversity and explore how these might be outworked
and applied in practice in church, community and pioneering settings. The module will consider the
beliefs, traditions and practices within other faith communities and students will be asked to reflect on
their own responses to diversity, including any cultural biases and assumptions.

A REPORT length 3000 WORDS weighted at 100%.
