With the rise of international human rights regimes, the continued relevance of state sovereignty is being called into question. This paper engages with the possibility for the emergence of post-national citizenship, in which universal human rights are attached to persons rather than territories. The case of detainees held by the US at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, brings to the fore questions about the relationship between territorial boundaries and human rights. An analysis of a recent US Supreme Court ruling on the legal rights of the Guantanamo detainees demonstrates that debates over postnational citizenship misconceptualise the relationship between international human rights law and state territory.
This project aimed to teach, facilitate the learning of, and assess need finding and problem formulation skills while students were immersed in an authentic practice environment during their coop work terms. An interdisciplinary team of students was placed in a manufacturing facility where they were asked to need find and propose significant problems to solve while they were taught design methods remotely. Students reported that they learned more deeply than a classroom environment because they were able to be in constant engagement with the problems they were trying to solve.
