I found the the Google.org course on poverty and development on the home page of the Stanford Center for Social Innovation . All the lectures are posted on youtube. The course is pitched for business people who are new to development issues, but its still great. I liked the case studies on the successes and failures of development assistance, and the final sum-up lecture at the end. There's also a good discussion of Pro Mujer, a microfinance initiative in South America modeled on the Grameen bank started by Muhammad Yunus.
Wish I could find a similar online resource on post-conflict peace-building.
