With Kirk Bergstrom, Founder and President of WorldLink; Emily Ryan, Program Director, Cultivating an Ecoliterate Worldview, Schumacher College; Shana Rappaport, Bioneers Education for Action Program Director; Melanie Ida Chopko, graphic recorder.
A vital movement is growing within the Bioneers community to combine our shared experience and wisdom in the service of education for sustainability. This highly interactive session is for educators, students, and social change agents who believe education is central to creating a truly sustainable future – and are committed to leveraging the strength of our collective capacity to do it. This is a unique opportunity to learn, share and connect around one of the essential questions of our time: “How can education ensure the long-term integrity of the biosphere and human well-being?”
Participants will explore a core set of principles and practices that define Education for Sustainability (EfS), engage in framing central questions of value to the field, and begin building an allied network to put them into action. Extend the experience by joining the “Wiser Together” session on Saturday, and Friday evening’s Education for Action (EfA) Networking Reception.
