ENV 102

: Social and Environmental Change
2025 Semester Two (1255)
The uneven effects of globalisation and social transformations are radically reshaping our worlds. How did we get here and what can we do about it? Using diverse local and global case-studies, this course examines how we navigate social and environmental change. Students will explore social processes to gain a foundational understanding of inequality, sustainability, and environmental and social justice.
