Students of the Hertie School continue to raise their concern for the lack of courses focused on the Global South as well as on other development issues. From Spring 2020 onward, the course on "Governance in Areas of Limited Statehood" taught by Dr. Gregor Walter-Drop, despite great relevance due to its focus on providing students with practical skills, seems to be reduced from being offered in each semester, to only once a year, causing many students to miss out on this valuable course.

This particular issue becomes even more problematic due to the fact that his course has been widely acclaimed and appreciated by students throughout the years and is always in great demand.

The course list was published right before Hertie enters into holidays, therefore, it is of great urgency that we as students are able to petition for this course to continue for this cohort and the next ones to come. The Hertie School Student Representation (HSR) also supports this initiative.
