About

Environmental justice is a concept and interdisciplinary research field that investigates the equitable distribution of environmental benefits and burdens, the recognition of diverse environmental values and experiences, and the fair and meaningful participation of all people in environmental decision-making processes. It examines how social, political, and economic factors contribute to environmental inequities and seeks to identify and implement solutions that promote environmental equity and sustainability, particularly for marginalized and vulnerable populations.
