SHUM 6308
Design Justice Workshop

Course information provided by the Courses of Study 2021-2022.

Design Justice Workshops bring students and faculty in the humanities and the design disciplines together around a common and pressing urban issue related to race, social justice, and the urban environment. The intent of the Design Justice Workshop is to study complex urban conditions using theoretical and analytic tools derived in equal part from the design disciplines and humanist studies. The course emphasizes the social reciprocity of learning through faculty and students might advance understanding of race and social justice while also being impacted by both external visitors and the communities with which they interact. The Design Justice Workshop, organized annually around a specific theme and co-taught faculty in A&S and AAP, includes a one-week site visit to experience the conditions under study and meet with local experts, designers, and authorities. Design Justice Workshops are offered under the auspices of Cornell University's Andrew W. Mellon Foundation Collaborative Studies in Architecture, Urbanism, and the Humanities grant.
