Minor Global Justice CEDLA - UvA
Global Justice is deeply concerned with the societal crises of our times. It addresses distinct searches for justice as they relate to persistent power imbalances and social inequalities. From gendered and racialized injustices, to climate change and political resistance, this minor builds on critical, global perspectives and research-driven insights from around the world to connect academia with advocacy and activism.
This minor is offered by the Faculty of Humanities and CEDLA. The faculty’s minors consist of 30 ECTS credits and earn you a second qualification that will be listed on the transcript accompanying your degree certificate.
