This is an assignment for a core course of the Global Poverty and Practice (GPP) Minor at UC Berkeley -- the course during which students prepare for their "practice experience" (PE). Each student will contribute to at least two Wikipedia articles – one focused on an aspect of the history/sociology of their PE site (eg. a country such as the U.S., Chile, Kenya, Malaysia ... or a city or region such as Lima, Peru or the San Francisco Bay Area); and the second focused on an aspect of key debates/approaches present in their PE sector (eg. water sanitation, community health, microfinance, worker-cooperatives, collective action, food justice, affordable housing).

Students enrolled in this course have been bringing material on global poverty and inequality to Wikipedia for seven consecutive semesters (since Fall 2017) -- this will be the eighth.
