What will I learn?

We find just and sustainable solutions to complex social and environmental challenges, grounded in the knowledge that racial justice, settler colonialism, and environmental problems are deeply intertwined.We seek to foreground intersectional and decolonizing understandings of power/privilege and identity in environment and community interrelationships.
