Sustainability and Nonprofit Organizations

Exploration of three fundamental questions: What is your role as an employee of a nonprofit organization in addressing systemic and planetary changes? How will you and your organization play a part in creating a more just and sustainable world? What type of leader do you need to be to achieve those aims? Applies theories of sustainability to real-world problems, investigates leadership responses to those problems, and explores the effectiveness of organization-based programs and other modes of intervention. Designed as a seminar involving lectures, guest speakers, class discussion, student presentations, reflection, and experiential learning opportunities.
