Making Change: Regional Research and Action

This course brings together students, educators, and community organizations to collaborate on generating solutions to regional problems. Students will learn in a region-integrated setting, drawing on scholarship from the Arts and Sciences, while incorporating Indigenous ways of knowing, to address problems in areas such as the social-ecological impacts of climate change, sustainable resources management, and social justice. Students will develop as researchers, consultants, innovators and leaders, furthering their capabilities as change-makers within the communities located on the traditional First Nations territories of our region.
