Environmental Justice: A Partnership between Illinois State University and Universidad Rafael Landívar
Illinois State University (ISU) and the Universidad Rafael Landívar (URL) have partnered to create a faculty and student exchange program that will add a global dimension in the area of environmental justice to the legal and criminal studies programs at both universities. While at URL, ISU students and faculty will visit important Guatemalan legal institutions, observe mock trials regarding environmental legal conflict, and participate in laboratories. While visiting ISU, URL students and faculty will have the opportunity to participate in workshops, course observations, and field visits to organizations working on environmental justice.
