ENST 94303Environmental Advocacy

Catalog

In this course, we explore different ways of “doing something about the environment,” including analysis of environmental movements in the US and abroad; understanding the functions of government agencies that have an environmental mission; and considering the relationship between civil litigation and environmental policy and management. In this course, we consider these issues as a means to understand the development and operation of environmental interest groups ranging from non-profits to professional lobbying firms, with the intent of building foundational skills needed to be successful in a career focused on environmental advocacy.
