Online
War and the Environment is a six-week online course with a strong emphasis on reflective practice, collaborative learning, and community building throughout. As wars, preparations for wars, and environmental destruction escalate—and much of the focus remains on human conflict—it is vital to better understand and respond to the far-reaching impacts of war and militarism on people, all living beings, and the planet. This course empowers you to do just that.
