NAAEE 46th Annual Conference

The 46th Annual Conference of the North American Association for Environmental Education, in San Juan, Puerto Rico, will build on more than four decades of work in our field to think creatively and collectively about how we can create a more sustainable future. We will pay tribute to the importance of the first international conference on environmental education, which was held in Tbilisi, Georgia, in 1977, and brought together environmental education leaders from around the world who first framed how education can help address the growing environmental and social challenges facing society. During the conference, we will share ideas and innovation about how we can build on the Tbilisi framework to imagine a better future and create a path forward for the field in the coming decade and beyond.
