What is this about?

This micro-module introduces the concept of environmental justice and explores how environmental harms and benefits are often distributed unequally across different communities. It encourages participants to reflect on the responsibility they hold in shaping sustainable and fair outcomes. Through a questionnaire and stakeholder mapping, learners will explore how environmental and social inequalities can emerge in their own work.
1
Environmental justice in practice

We will begin by watching a short video on environmental justice. After watching the video, you will be asked to complete a brief questionnaire based on the content you’ve just seen.

2
Assess your own research

Now that you have learned about environmental justice, we invite you to reflect on your research by answering the questions below.

3
Map Stakeholders

Environmental justice does not only invite us to reflect on "what" is affected by research but also "who" is affected, and who has power to shape decisions. In this activity we will engage in an exercise to identify and explore the stakeholders connected to your research. This will help you better understand who is affected by your work and in what ways. The Rainbow Diagram will be used to classify stakeholders based on their proximity and influence. The closer a stakeholder is placed to the center, the more directly they are affected by the research or have influence over it.
