COURSE OBJECTIVE
Ecological literacy is a term that points to an awareness about the dynamics of the natural environment, humanity’s role and responsibility in it; the critical interrogation of human relationship to non-human nature, and the environmental problems arising from that. In the current age of climate crisis, improving an ecological perspective to favor the rights of other living beings and ecosystems is considered as a citizenship consciousness. In that sense, this course aims to provide a fundamental knowledge and perspective with a holistic and interdisciplinary approach to encourage awareness about environmental problems. The course aims to examine the current climate crisis with its social, cultural and economic aspects, and raise consciousness on environmental and social sustainability.
