EDUC-6240: Environmental Policy and Advocacy for Educators

This class will explore the role of the educator intent on working to bring urban communities and neighborhoods into conversations about development and gentrification, sustainability efforts, green jobs, access to healthy food, affordable housing, environmental pollution and climate justice. How does the educator become the bridge and a convener between the decision makers in power and the people who live, work and play in urban communities. Strategies that work to provide voice, power and the means to have influence demand knowledge of navigating equity issues and the facilitation of complex issues.
