Centre for Communities and Social Justice, Greenwich (CaSJ)

Description

The Centre for Communities and Social Justice (CaSJ) at the University of Greenwich works towards transformative justice through intersectional research, seeking to empower the marginalised and the unheard. Its about page says it critically reflects on the relationships between power and social injustice, investigates how local, community-focused processes can transform societies, and identifies solutions to harness social inclusion as a driver for social change. The centre brings together an interdisciplinary network of researchers working within sociology, social policy, criminology, law, human geography and community theatre and performance. Its research is organised around four interlinked thematic strands: communities and lived experience; gender, sexualities and feminist justice; migration and community networks; and policy evidence and practice. Its methods include arts-based interventions, autoethnographic practices, and discourse and narrative analysis.
