Discover your true potential with our Master of Arts in Community Action and Development programme! 

This degree is aimed at those seeking to specialise in community studies at Masters level and to bolster their community work and development skills.

During their final year of study students are expected to successfully complete a dissertation on a related research topic and thus will be in a privileged position to contribute to the growing corpus of knowledge in this exciting field of inquiry. This Master degree provides an enthralling academic and vocational pathway for holders of a Bachelor  degree in youth and community studies or in social work, social policy, sociology, criminology, anthropology, psychology or in any related area and who wish to contribute to making their community spaces safer, stronger and open to positive change.
