FWIS 260: INDIGENOUS ENVIRONMENTALISM

Spring 2025 · Section 001 · CRN 26673

In this course, we will draw on a range of disciplines, including anthropology, environmental studies, and indigenous studies, as we examine various indigenous environmental movements through the lens of foundational concepts such as land as pedagogy, indigeneity, and settler-colonialism. This course is aimed to (1) introduce specific case studies of indigenous leadership, knowledge, and innovation in environmental protection initiatives; (2) equip students with skills they need to critically analyze and compare various indigenous environmental movements; and (3) engage students in cultivating heathier ways of relating to land and indigenous communities.
