Section Description

Participatory, transdisciplinary and action research have become widely recognized as vital approaches for agroecology and food sovereignty. These approaches require a careful and intentional cultivation of a researcher’s commitments, skill and competencies. Students will learn how participatory action research can deepen our collective understanding of complex issues and support social transformations for social justice and sustainability. We will use participatory learning methods to engage with theory, build skills, learn new methods and cultivate a critical self-awareness as a researcher. Students will meet together with non-credit students as a part of a diverse and interactive learning community.
