The Department of Social Work at MacEwan University is currently seeking project submissions from community organizations for a course-based Work-Integrated Learning (WIL) experience in the SOWK 303: Social Work and Sustainability course. This opportunity will take place during the Fall 2025 semester (September 4–December 4, 2025). We invite organizations to partner with us on meaningful, theory-informed student projects that support your mission and contribute to a more supportive and sustainable future. We are looking for projects that will allow students to apply concepts of the following sustainability lenses: Deep Ecology – Focuses on the belief that all living things have value. Students using this lens may explore how to help people reconnect with nature and support well-being through green spaces, nature-based programs, or environmental care practices. Eco-Feminism – Looks at how environmental issues affect women and gender-diverse people, especially in vulnerable communities. Students may work on projects that combine climate action with social support—such as community gardens for single mothers or addressing health impacts from environmental exposure. Social Ecology – Examines how environmental problems are connected to social inequality. Students may help create community-based solutions—like making green spaces more accessible in low-income areas, or supporting grassroots sustainability initiatives. Indigenous Ways of Knowing – Emphasizes traditional knowledge, respect for the land, and community relationships. Students may support Indigenous-led programs, land-based education, or cultural revitalization efforts that tie into environmental care. Environmental Racism – Highlights how pollution and climate issues often harm marginalized and racialized communities the most. Students may help with research, advocacy, or outreach efforts that bring attention to these inequalities and support affected communities.
