Some statistics needs to be updated based on latest data, Links to the assignments are not working or not updated to the new link and needs to be aligned but overall the course is highly recommended!

This course was perfect for those wanting to explore the world of development, broad enough to include all interlinked themes, with sufficient reading materials to spark one's specializing interests.
