Environmental and Climate Justice

This seminar focuses on the intersection of environmental and climate justice. Drawing upon scholarly articles, books, music, art, films, and testimonies from experts, we will learn about the conditions that have given rise to environmental and climate justice movements; differences in demands, strategies, and worldviews expressed by such movements around the globe; and grapple with the structural and institutional barriers they face. This seminar also pays special attention to our local context, highlighting relevant scholarship at Princeton University in order to expose freshmen to faculty and the ENV certificate program.
