An Experiential Inquiry into Watershed Restoration. Twice a week, students attend a seminar to discuss the role of strategy in social movements with particular attention to biophysical watershed restoration strategies growing out of environmental management. Simultaneously, each student completes an internship with a MWC member organization in the Boston metropolitan area. Internship placements provide students opportunities to observe and participate in strategic decision-making and implementation of nonviolent tactics. The institute is designed to facilitate systematic analysis and testing of both social movement and nonviolence theory and practice in concrete settings.
Enrollment is limited and competitive.
