Global Studies Department (10971) TCLA - College of Liberal Arts

Course description

This course will explore one of our biggest threats today, global climate crisis, and understand it as deeply entangled with other pressing concerns such as deepening social inequality, racial and gender injustice, food insecurity and environmental devastation, war and violence. We will understand it as a global problem with different regional specificities and histories, learning from a multitude of perspectives, sciences, voices, and experiences. The course will explore how working to collectively resolve this environmental issue requires a multi-pronged approach that enables peoples around the world to imagine--and strive for--a world that reverses the course of history, moving from climate crisis to justice.
