Overview

In the Critical Studies in Equity and Solidarity (Hons) degree at University of Toronto, students question the dominant conceptualization of equity by the state, educational programs, the non-profit sectors and community organizations as individualized and de-historicized social differences.

Key Features

The program is a hub of critical disability studies teaching and learning. The program provides students with theoretical and practical tools to study social, political, economic and historical injustices. CSES takes a unique approach to undergraduate education that values student experiential learning and community knowledge.

The learning goal of CSES is to provide frameworks on theories of transformative social change rooted in political activism and formations of solidarity.

The program encourages students to apply theory in action through organizing and practicing solidarity in making a more just world. CSES creates a dynamic learning environment that extends far beyond the university walls.

With a vibrant student body, dynamic faculty members, connection with a wide range of community partners and a bold curriculum, CSES at New College is a leader in studies of social justice, settler colonialism, race, gender, sexuality, disability, land/water and sustainability, activism, solidarity and the art of resistance, and global food equity and security.
