PACTS Associated Faculty from 12 Academic Disciplines
Note: The Canadian Mennonite University Shaftesbury Campus has tried a bold experiment of the whole university committing to peace and justice as core marks of identity and mission. Peace and justice is not a department concern of a few but a unique distinguishing characteristic of the whole university. Therefore, as well as discipline-specific courses on peace and conflict, faculty from across the university teach courses which count towards the PACTS program. These faculty include:
Biblical and Theology Studies
Business and Organizational Administration Studies
- Andrea Martins
Communications and Media
English
Geography
History
International Development Studies
Philosophy
Psychology
