Social Justice

Social Justice is a philosophical approach that emphasizes the need for fairness, equality, and access to opportunities within a society.

You'll learn about the theories of justice, the ways to promote social equity, the operation of public policies, and the impact of socio-political factors on marginalized communities. This skill will empower you to critically analyze social systems, advocate for societal transformation, and develop interventions to address the various dimensions of social inequity.
