Introduction

The Certificate in Cultural and Artistic Practices for Environmental and Social Justice (CAP) prepares students to collaborate with communities to make art of all forms, to express diverse identities, and to explore and take action on social and environmental issues.

The first of its kind in Canada, this certificate allows you to develop creative artistic skills, deepen your social analysis and learn to work collaboratively with community arts groups. You will gain real-world experience in placements with local cultural agencies and community organizations.

This certificate will teach you to use art as a tool for expressing diverse identities, for developing community awareness about environmental issues, and to take action for social change. You will take courses offered through the Faculties of Environmental & Urban Change and the School of the Arts, Performance, Media & Design to develop artistic skills while working collaboratively on a community-based cultural production in your final year of study.

Students will develop:

  • Cultural and artistic skills
  • Deepen their social analysis
