Social Justice Education

Facilitation. Dialogue. Action. 

Social Justice Education at Northwestern facilitates learning opportunities for students to self-explore, dialogue across difference, and take action towards a more equitable campus and world. We do this through workshops, programs, credit-bearing classes, and student and campus partnerships.
