GSELS Vision
Global Sustainability and Earth Literacy Studies acknowledges the
interconnections and
interdependence of the personal,
social, economic, cultural, environmental, and
political aspects of our world. Collaboratively,
students, faculty, administrators, and staff
explore the significance of human activity
within an evolving Universe and Earth. Through
shared leadership,
this nurturing learning
community facilitates the emergence
of awareness, knowledge,
skills and solutions
necessary to create sustainable systems that
support a healthy and just economy, society,
culture and environment, while fostering values
of Earth ethics, social justice, cultural
diversity, and civic engagement.
