During this seminar students will dig into the research and literature supporting environmental education as vital to our development and health as humans. We will practice the skills and tools necessary to effectively teach environmental education in a various settings and dig deep into some case studies of effective environmental education that is liberating students’ minds as well as their communities.

In addition to the seminar students have the opportunity to work with one of several amazing environmental organizations or school gardens.
