Ecology and Environment

This interdisciplinary month-long summer certificate course on environment/development issues allows participants to understand and critically evaluate issues that lie at the interface of environment and development; poverty; democracy, equity and justice.

Course design: Classroom lectures, seminars, several local field excursions, a week-long field visit to rural India, together with innovative, challenging project individual and/or group work. Participants are given an intense briefing on issues that are of concern to India and other developing countries. Field trips and meetings with communities serve to illustrate innovations and eco-restoration efforts that communities make to enable them to face the challenges of managing their natural resources base.
