Abstract
The Day of Social Justice is an innovative approach through which undergraduates are taught about, and assessed on, the principles and practice of critical community psychology. Students produce creative displays, campaigning to engage others in social justice issues with a view to enacting concrete, measurable social change. This chapter explores the roots, practice and applications of this method for teaching activism at HE level.
