Winter 2021 Graduate Seminar
(New: Here's the web site for this graduate seminar from Winter 2023!)
How should we promote learning in order to create more just, thriving, and regenerative conditions for all Earthly beings, human and otherwise?
Working through perspectives of care, wellbeing, and equity, the participants in this graduate seminar will collectively inquire into how climate and environmental justice can be promoted through varied contexts of education. Over the term, we will explore topics, exemplars, and possibilities of interest to our learning community. We have chosen to make our collaborative activities public online in order to invite others into this learning experience with us.
To learn more about our initial points of departure, see the detailed course description. We will update this site over time with readings, resources, and products of our shared inquiry. We also invite you to follow along and join in our inquiry on Twitter at #UWClimateEd.

We are equity-focused learning scientists in the College of Education at the University of Washington who collaborate with educational practitioners and community members to help people learn science and engineering in ways that are consequential to them. We are committed to developing educational approaches that build capacity for ecological caring, multispecies kinship, and community response initiatives centered on justice from anti-racist, anti-colonial, and anti-capitalist perspectives.
