Social justice is interested in socioeconomic inequality and disadvantage; environmental justice; discrimination and inequality related to age, gender, race and cultural diversity; and the treatment of refugees. It has a unique focus on mechanisms to bring about positive social change through policy, law and activism. It critically examines legal and political measures aimed at the elimination of discrimination, as well as the promotion of equality, justice and fairness in society. In the Social Justice major, you’ll learn about human rights law, social and political policy design, and you’ll become familiar with the role of civil society, activism and advocacy in bringing about societal change. You’ll also learn about key concepts and debates in social justice studies, and you’ll develop fundamental skills in law, policy development and analysis, and designing social change campaigns.
