Do you know any community activists who might want to study Environmental Justice?
Friends of the Earth Scotland and the Queen Margaret University in Edinburgh run an award winning, part-time, 18 month, distance learning course on Environmental Justice.
Designed for anyone wanting to make a difference for the environment in their community or workplace the course still has places left on it when it starts again in April.
No qualifications are needed, the only entrance requirement is that you have an environmental project based in your community or workplace that you can work on while you are studying. The course is taught using a special website and using specially prepared handbooks with course notes, you do need access to a computer and the internet.
Support and supervisions is provided by the tutors and support staff based at Queen Margaret University and at Friends of the Earth Scotland. There will also be regular opportunities to meet other students and environmental activists in face-to-face sessions.
Students in receipt of benefits – including family tax credits – will have fees waived.
