    Hello Ankita,

    Thank you for sharing a reading list on engineering and social justice with readers of the Engineering for Change website.

    One useful addition would be a category on Engineering Education, which has increasingly engaged the role of social justice in engineering education, via books such as these:

    Riley, Donna (2008). Engineering and Social Justice. San Rafael, CA: Morgan and Claypool.

    Ballie, Carolone (2009). Engineering and Society: Working towards Social Justice. Part I, Engineering and society. San Rafael, CA: Morgan and Claypool.

    Baillie, Caroline, Pawley, Alice L., and Riley, Donna. (2012). Engineering and Social Justice: In the University and Beyond. West Lafayette, IN: Purdue University Press.

    Lucena, Juan C. (2013). Engineering Education for Social Justice: Critical Explorations and Opportunities. New York: Springer.

    Leydens, Jon A. and Lucena, Juan C. (2018). Engineering Justice: Transforming Engineering Education and Practice. Hoboken, NJ: Wiley/IEEE Press.

    Hope this is helpful to readers of E4C. Best regards,

    Jon

    Hi Jon, thanks for the recommendations! Iyour feedback about incorporating “Engineering Education” in this list is noted. It is a critical topic because I also whole-heartedly agree social justice needs to become mainstream in eng education! Unfortunately, I cannot edit this entry to add your SUGGESTIONS; However I have shared this post on my medium page (https://medium.com/@ankitajoshi) and i will add your SUGGESTIONS there. also, I have read “Engineering and Social Justice” By donna Riley and it is one of my favorite reads in this domain! please keep sharing more resources and id love to chat more!
