Humans of ID

In this episode Angeliki and Ziyaad explore how to make development a topic that is accessible for all. This draws on an article by PHD student Pauline Jerrentup entitled “‘Who knows what? The pitfalls of academic jargon’”. The link is as follows: https://blogs.lse.ac.uk/internationaldevelopment/2023/03/14/who-knows-what-the-pitfalls-of-academic-jargon/
 
Join us as we say hello in different languages, discuss how academic language can seem like hieroglyphics and mention how to get help.
 
Let’s make development a field that everyone can feel at home in!

What is Humans of ID?

Inspired by the "Humans of.." concept of sharing stories originated by photoblogger Brandon Stanton in New York, Humans of ID is a podcast where students in the LSE Department of International Development sit down with classmates, instructors, and alumni to learn about their stories and how they are interacting with issues in, and approaches to, development.
