Welcome to our self-paced course, Built Environment and Social Justice! This course is designed for everyone—whether you’re a community organizer, an activist, a student, a curious learner, or someone who has never actively thought about the built environment that exists around you before. If you’re interested in understanding how the design of our spaces and infrastructure impacts social justice, this course is for you!

Throughout this course, participants will gain a deeper understanding of how built environments—such as housing, public spaces, transportation systems, and urban areas at large—interact with social justice issues. By applying a critical lens, you’ll learn how these environments perpetuate or challenge social inequities, particularly for vulnerable and marginalized communities. As you engage with these topics, you will also develop practical tools to assess the built environments around you and explore ways to advocate for more equitable, inclusive, and socially just spaces. Together, we will explore real-world examples, actionable solutions, and strategies that help shape the built environment in ways that further social justice.

This course is brought to you by One Future Collective. One Future Collective exists to advance social justice by catalysing people-power and just institutions. We are a feminist social purpose organisation with a vision of a world built on social justice, led by communities of care.
