The Environmental Justice Working Group (EJWG) at Stanford is an intergenerational collective working to embed environmental justice into our research, teaching, and community-engagement at Stanford since 2012. Our EJWG Coordinating Council meets every two weeks. We comprise a dedicated leadership team with faculty, staff, and student co-leads and representatives from 20 different organizational affiliations on campus. We serve a broader community of 800+ members and connect broadly with Bay Area EJ leaders supporting academic-community partnerships.

Environmental Justice (EJ) advances a positive vision for actions and policies that fight environmental racism.
This work requires us to center the voices and leadership of marginalized communities in
for all individuals and communities, regardless of race, ethnicity, gender, sexuality, religion, nationality, age, ability, and income/wealth. Furthermore, we fight for EJ across a broad range of social and physical environments, including the places where we live, work, play, eat, worship, and learn. |

Why EJ @ Stanford?
Part of this work involves diversifying our faculty, establishing community research partnerships, and learning from the perspectives of marginalized communities.
EJ approaches are important for building trust with large segments of society that are currently excluded from most environmental decision-making and academic knowledge production. |
EJ @ Stanford has been working to embed environmental justice into our research, teaching, and community-engagement since 2012.
