Thank you
Thank you so much for joining us at the 36th NSW Environmental Education Conference – Albury 2024. We hope you had as much fun as we did!
With 35 speakers and 80 attendees from across NSW (and across state borders), it was a unique opportunity to share stories, learn from practitioners, reflect on ideas and plan new projects.
Supporting the environmental education community
Many thanks to our fabulous conference sponsors – Charles Sturt University, Halve Waste, Return and Earn, NSW EPA, NSW Government Primary Industries Productivity and Abatement Program and Petaurus. Our professional learning was made possible thanks to these organisations supporting the environmental education sector, in our drive to deliver quality education, engagement and behaviour change programs for change and regeneration.
Resources from the Conference
We have created a Google Drive folder to share Conference resources:
- Notes from the World Cafe Session on Day 2/Friday – hopefully you find some inspiration here for collaborative work.
- Some speakers have agreed to make copies of their presentations available, we are now getting these in order and will soon be placed in our shared google drive.
- If you have any photos of the event you are happy to share, please save them to this shared drive (with your surname in the image title, so we can acknowledge).
Learning for change
This year’s theme was inspired by a forthcoming report, “Education and Learning for Environmental and Sustainable Futures: 50 years of Learning for Change.”
Our regional, rural conference aims to provide a platform for environmental leaders across sectors (community, higher education, TAFE, schools, early years, government, businesses and not-for-profits, Farming Systems Group/Grower Group) to convene, exchange ideas and strategise practical approaches for effecting change.
Topics include: wellbeing and resilience, agriculture as a climate and nature repair solution, social justice, designing learning for change and active hope.
It was great to see so many diverse presenters, delegates and organisations coming together at our 2024 conference.
