Diversity, Inclusion and Social Justice

EDMED7072 Diversity, Inclusion and Social Justice

This course is designed to explore diversity and inclusion from a social justice perspective. Students engage in research that explores legislative documents and policy that informs inclusion and examines responses to diversity by service providers. Inclusive approaches are explored as a way to support, extend and manage diversity in a range of contexts. Theoretical, political and cultural practices are explored to ground and examine diversity, abilities and inclusions. There is a large focus on social justice and human rights paradigms. These are examined to provide students with insight as to how notions of dis/ability and diversity are shaped by social, political and cultural perspectives.
