Program Information
(Ext. 2326)

Program Director: Dr. Tanya Basok

Social Justice Studies is a multi-disciplinary area of studies that enables students to gain insight into the unique and complex challenges facing societies throughout the world. In a world increasingly characterised by conflict, on a global and a national level, there is a need for individuals who can bring clarity of thought and depth of understanding to bear upon our most pressing social, economic and political problems. Students in this program will explore the roots of inequalities and will evaluate different strategies to bring about social change.
