Human Rights and Social Justice (MA)

Program Information

School:Carleton University - Graduate Studies
Faculty:Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences
Degree:Master
Field of Study:Social Sciences, Other
Description:

Our Master of Arts (MA) program emphasizes social justice frameworks born out of anti-colonial, decolonial, anti-racist, transnational, and community-based knowledge processes and practices in the context of graduate studies. An integral aspect of the program will focus on the multiple and dialectical definitions of social justice as a field of conceptual, activated, and collective actions. It represents a creative and robust platform to offer dynamic courses, develop innovative pedagogical approaches, and forge a research agenda located within the interdisciplinary space carved out by the overlap between human rights and social justice as two fields of academic inquiry and political advocacy work.
