SJS 3020 Theology and Practice of Environmental Justice I
The student will explore introductory theological and literary works in social justice and creation care as it relates to the environment and will apply these works through extensive hands-on, service-learning activities related to ecological restoration and sustainable development. Projects will be coordinated through the Center for Social Justice's environmental programs (e.g., composting initiative, community gardens, Brown's Creek reclamation). Classroom readings and theological reflections and discussions will complement the extensive field experience.
