CYC300 - Advancing Social Justice Praxis in CYC

Description

Focuses on developing social justice practices through engaged experiential learning that challenge socially constructed ideologies. Interrogates normative social practices and policies that have resulted in systemic discrimination and exclusion evident in contemporary practice settings. Critical theories, including queer, anti-racism, intersectionality and decolonization are advanced in order to consider social justice action in the multiple CYC contexts students encounter. Accountable practitioner self-enquiry is applied when working with marginalized communities.
