The 34th NSW Environmental Education Conference ActiveNature: Learning, Citizenship and Activism for Sustainability is being conducted in partnership with Sutherland Shire Environment Centre. The event will have a special focus on the role of activism in education programs and initiatives. It will emphasise the importance of active citizenship in sustainability. This conference will focus on the role of education and educators in:

• building learning pathways towards a deeper understanding of citizenship
• improving understanding of activism in achieving a sustainable world
• strengthening and making more explicit our collective focus on longer term change.

We will ask presenters to tell stories, make links, draw out lessons, highlight achievements and indicate possibilities for strengthening the focus on building active citizenship in education initiatives.
