Do you want to be part of real, human-centered, community-based solutions to our climate (justice) crisis, solutions that go beyond technological fixes to deeper human, cultural, and systems changes?
The Climate Action Scholars (CAS) Program is a 2-quarter, 12-unit course series out of the Social Sciences Division that will be offered this winter and spring (one 6-unit class each quarter). The program welcomes students from all disciplines and backgrounds. We can accommodate up
to 25 students, and will accept applications until October 14th* or until we reach the registration limit. If you are:
concerned about the climate crisis and related issues of justice, equity, health and wellbeing, and
interested in hands-on, collaborative, community-based learning, research, and action,
then apply to be part of the Climate Action Scholars Program in winter and spring, 2023. The class will meet on Friday mornings from 9 - 11:50am, with additional outings on occasional Friday afternoons and weekend days**.
The course series will be taught by Leslie R. Lewis, PhD, MPH, a faculty member in the USP Dept, anthropologist, and a veteran of experiential, integrative, community-engaged learning.
Applications are due Friday, October 14, 2022. For additional information or questions, contact Dr. Lewis at lrlewis@ucsd.edu. Scan QR code to open application
