Description

This course will focus on the ethics of social justice in contemporary art therapy practices and the practitioner’s relationship to power, privilege, and cultural values in the ethical delivery of health and education services. Students will reflect on the principles of social change and their own impact as a change agent. The social implications for how artistic and scientific knowledge is generated will be examined.
