April 13-14, 2026

The Center for Environmental Justice at CSU, together with our global partners, announces and welcomes you to join us for an extraordinary gathering to continue the dialogue and inspire action on environmental justice.

This hybrid gathering relaunches the series of conferences on environmental justice (EJ) that was envisioned by various EJ centers back in 2017 but interrupted by the pandemic. We aim to deepen connections amongst EJ scholars, advocates, and practitioners across South and North, East and West, across different political and theoretical traditions and substantive interests.

Mapping EJ Presentations & Research

Thanks to CEJ Co-Founder, Melinda Laituri, we have mapped where the global conference presenters are from, as well as where their research is being done. Check out the maps!
