See CRICOS-registered alternativesEnvironmental issues such as climate change, population growth, consumption, globalisation and loss of biodiversity are increasingly impacting all human societies. Considering the diversity of human environmental knowledges, beliefs and behaviours, anthropology has an important contribution to make in understanding these issues in terms of theory, empirical research and proposed solutions. Drawing on a range of interdisciplinary ethnographic case studies from industrial, rural and small scale societies to illustrate the diversity of human responses to environmental change this subject will familiarise you with the main theoretical and methodological currents in environmental anthropology. You will gain knowledge of a range of social scientific frameworks for thinking about human - environment interactions as well as the various applied contexts where social scientists are involved in efforts to address environmental issues.
