Creating inclusive systems of governance which respect diversity is an important aspiration for many democratic societies in a globalised world. GEx Toronto critically examines the complexities involved in creating such systems for a heterogeneous population. Through an interdisciplinary framework, students will explore how narratives concerning diversity and inclusion are constructed and challenged, how communities are legitimised or pathologised by state institutions, and why struggles for recognition and autonomy succeed or fail as communities work to fashion unity out of difference. Students will engage in self-directed projects within a curated experiential environment, document accomplishments, and contribute to knowledge about Canada.
