The Global Labour University network is offering the one year Master Programme 'Labour Policies and Globalisation' on sustainable development, social justice, international labour standards and trade unions.

Until now the course has been run in Germany at the [|University of Kassel] and the [|Berlin School of Economics]. A new partnership with the University of Witwatersrand means that from January 2007 you will be able to participate in the programme in Johannesburg, South Africa.

Applicants need to apply by the 1st October 2006 for the 2007 course.

Women are strongly encouraged to participate. Applicants should, as a rule, not be older than 40 years of age.

The Global Labour University is supported by the [|ILO], the [|Hans Boeckler Foundation] and the [|Friedrich Ebert Foundation]. A limited number of scholarships are available. The endorsement by a trade union is a requirement for a scholarship. The scholarship is conditional on a contribution of 1500 Euro from the supporting trade union or another donor.
