Article 25 states “The national and local governments shall develop and execute policies necessary to deepen citizens’ understanding of environmental preservation through education, publicity and so on, and to inspire citizens to voluntarily participate in environmental preservation efforts in their daily lives.” The Framework Act of Environmental Policy forms the foundation of Korea’s environmental policies today.</span></span></span></span></span></span></span></p> <p><strong><span><span><span><span><span><span><span>Environmental Education Promotion Act and Related EE Policies</span></span></span></span></span></span></span></strong></p> <p><span><span><span><span><span><span><span>Korea is one of eight countries with a national EE act. The other countries include the U.S., Japan, Brazil, Philippines, Taiwan, Colombia and most recently Armenia. Korea is the third country to have enacted national EE legislation, following the 1990 National Environmental Education Act in the U.S. and the 2003 Act on Promotion of Environmental Conservation Activities through Environmental Education in Japan.</span></span></span></span></span></span></span></p> <p><span><span><span><span><span><span><span>The Environmental Education Promotion Act (EEPA) of Korea was enacted in 2008. Since then, the EEPA has supplied an influential legal framework for EE policy and has provided legal and legislative instruments for EE in Korea. The EEPA is aimed at promoting EE, and ultimately sustainable development, by supporting formal (K-16) and non-formal EE (ROK, 2008). </span></span></span></span></span></span></span></p> <p><span><span><span><span><span><span><span>The legislation process for the EEPA of Korea started in the early 2000s, based on the increased need for legislative support among environmental educators and the example of the National Environmental Education Act (1990) in the U.S. The draft bill was prepared through close collaboration among experts in the Korean Society for Environmental Education (KOSEE) and the Environmental Forum of the Korean National Assembly. The draft bill was revised through pre-legislative consultation among the Ministry of Environment, the National Assembly, and EE experts. The voices from environmental educators in communities and schools were gathered by KOSEE and the Environmental Forum of Korean National Assembly to influence lawmakers. The draft bill, however, did not pass during the 16th National Assembly which ended its term in 2004. The EEPA bill was re-proposed to the 17th National Assembly in 2007 and enacted in 2008. The Presidential Decree and the Ordinance of the Ministry of Environment for the Environmental Education Promotion Act were enacted in 2008.</span></span></span></span></span></span></span></p> <p><span><span><span><span><span><span><span>The EEPA provides legal and legislative instruments for EE in Korea. It also states a legal definition of Environmental Education: “education to help the nation cultivate knowledge, capacity, attitudes, values, and so on which are necessary for preserving and improving the environment and putting such knowledge into practice, with the purpose of contributing to the sustainable development of the State (nation) and the local communities'' (Article 2, EEPA).</span></span></span></span></span></span></span></p> <p><span><span><span><span><span><span><span>The EEPA of Korea has provisions on support for EE in schools (Article 9) and promotion of non-formal EE (Article 10) along with national/regional comprehensive plans on EE (Articles 5∼6). Major components of EEPA include:</span></span></span></span></span></span></span></p> <ul><li><span><span><span><span><span><span><span>    Formulation and implementation of Comprehensive Plans on EE (Articles 5-6)</span></span></span></span></span></span></span></li> <li><span><span><span><span><span><span><span>    Establishment and operation of EE Promotion Committee (Article 7)</span></span></span></span></span></span></span></li> <li><span><span><span><span><span><span><span>    Support for EE in schools (Article 9)</span></span></span></span></span></span></span></li> <li><span><span><span><span><span><span><span>    Promotion of non-formal EE (Article 10)</span></span></span></span></span></span></span></li> <li><span><span><span><span><span><span><span>    Training and certification for non-formal environmental educators (Articles 11-12)</span></span></span></span></span></span></span></li> <li><span><span><span><span><span><span><span>    Development and distribution of EE programs (Article 13)</span></span></span></span></span></span></span></li> <li><span><span><span><span><span><span><span>    Certification of EE programs (Articles 14-15)</span></span></span></span></span></span></span></li> <li><span><span><span><span><span><span><span>    Designation of EE Centers (Article 16)</span></span></span></span></span></span></span></li> </ul><p><span><span><span><span><span><span><span>In the EEPA, the Ministry of Environment is intended to play a collaborative role with other central administrative agencies. Most important, the Minister of Environment shall formulate comprehensive plans on EE in consultation with the relevant central administrative agencies, including the Minister of Education in supporting EE in schools and the Minister of Oceans and Fisheries in supporting marine EE (Article 5).</span></span></span></span></span></span></span></p> <p><span><span><span><span><span><span><span>Another key component of the EEPA is the establishment of national and regional EE centers to implement and support EE at these levels. According to the EEPA, the Minister of Environment may designate EE centers to promote the projects necessary to vitalize EE (Article 16), and governors of the 17 provinces or metropolitan cities may designate a regional environmental education center to support EE in the region. Certification systems for non-formal environmental educators (Article 11) and EE programs (Articles 14∼15) are also included in the EEPA.</span></span></span></span></span></span></span></p> <p><span><span><span><span><span><span><span>To support the implementation of the EEPA and to promote EE in their regions, all 17 regional governments have enacted ordinances for EE promotion. Most of the regional ordinances for EE promotion include provisions on EE regional plans, regional EE centers, an advisory committee, and support for both formal and non-formal EE. Ordinances for school EE were promulgated by six regional offices of education to enhance support for formal EE. These all show ways of institutionalizing support for EE in Korea. </span></span></span></span></span></span></span></p> <p><span><span><span><span><span><span><span>The EEPA includes both the support for EE in schools (Article 9) and the promotion of non-formal EE (Article 10). Thus the national/regional EE plans and national/regional EE centers are supposed to cover both formal and non-formal EE, however, formal EE is generally prioritized. </span></span></span></span></span></span></span></p> </div> <div class="field-country-leadership"><p><strong>National Association </strong><br /> Korean Society for Environmental Education (KOSEE) <a href="https://kosee.jams.or.kr">https://kosee.jams.or.kr</a><br /><span><span><span><span><span>The EE researchers and practitioners in Korea formed the Korean Society for Environmental Education (KOSEE) in 1989 to promote EE research and practice.

As of 2020, it has a population of approximately 52 million people who live over an area of 99,700 square kilometers (population density 519/km2). Similar to other East Asian countries, Korea has a tradition of Confucianism, however, rapid economic growth and influences from American-spawned mass culture starting in the 1960s have tended to override the traditional heritage of Confucianism in contemporary Korean culture (Calder &amp; Fukuyama, 2008). As of 2019, the Gross Domestic Product (GDP) of Korea is approximately 1,600 billion USD, making it the 14th largest national economy in the world (IMF, 2017). The rapid economic growth has resulted in dramatic changes in the country’s social structure and environmental quality. Today over 80% of South Koreans live in urban areas.</span></span></span></span></span></span></p> <p><span><span><span><span><span><span>The Republic of Korea is a democratic republic, with a strong national government and local autonomous systems. The national government, based on the presidential system, consists of executive, legislative and judiciary branches. The local autonomous system includes 17 regional governments of provinces or metropolitan cities, and 226 local city or county governments. The Korean national curriculum is prescribed by the Enforcement Decrees of the Primary &amp; Secondary Education Act. This serves as the basis for classroom content and textbook development. The national curriculum has been revised on a periodic basis to reflect changing demands for education, emerging needs of society, and new frontiers of academic disciplines. Regional offices of education and individual schools have limited ability to design their own curriculum within the allowable ranges of the national curriculum. Education has played a critical role in Korea’s economic growth by creating a well-educated populace and in social changes by sharing value systems and civic virtues. </span></span></span></span></span></span></p> <p><strong><span><span><span><span><span><span>Traditions of EE in Korea</span></span></span></span></span></span></strong></p> <p><span><span><span><span><span><span>EE trends in Korea include conservation education, anti-pollution education, nature study, climate change education, and education for sustainable development. Additionally, holistic, critical perspectives regarding nature and humans' place/role in nature have begun to emerge. </span></span></span></span></span></span></p> </div> Thu, 17 Sep 2020 15:44:26 +0000 mlhopkins100@gmail.com 318 at https://thegeep.org Brazil https://thegeep.org/learn/countries/brazil Brazil<span class="field field--name-uid field--type-entity-reference field--label-hidden"><span lang="" about="/user/1" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype="">admin</span></span> <span class="field field--name-created field--type-created field--label-hidden">Wed, 04/03/2019 - 10:24</span> <div class="field-top-image-for-subpages"> <picture> <!--[if IE 9]><video style="display: none;"><![endif]--> <source srcset="/sites/default/files/styles/subpage_banner_extra_wide/public/2019-04/Alto_Cariri_2.jpg?h=10d202d3&amp;itok=T6am0hKL 1x" media="all and (min-width: 1500px)" type="image/jpeg"/> <source srcset="/sites/default/files/styles/subpage_banner_wide/public/2019-04/Alto_Cariri_2.jpg?h=10d202d3&amp;itok=vPFO59g9 1x, /sites/default/files/styles/subpage_banner_wide_2x/public/2019-04/Alto_Cariri_2.jpg?h=10d202d3&amp;itok=TsxAU1Zb 2x" media="all and (min-width: 1200px) and (max-width: 1499px)" type="image/jpeg"/> <source srcset="/sites/default/files/styles/subpage_banner_desk/public/2019-04/Alto_Cariri_2.jpg?h=10d202d3&amp;itok=KIlM2MZq 1x, /sites/default/files/styles/subpage_banner_dest_2x/public/2019-04/Alto_Cariri_2.jpg?h=10d202d3&amp;itok=CfnkWIdC 2x" media="all and (min-width: 960px) and (max-width: 1199px)" type="image/jpeg"/> <source srcset="/sites/default/files/styles/subpage_banner_tablet/public/2019-04/Alto_Cariri_2.jpg?h=10d202d3&amp;itok=BTgCM4Qu 1x, /sites/default/files/styles/subpage_banner_tablet_2x/public/2019-04/Alto_Cariri_2.jpg?h=10d202d3&amp;itok=IvDR813P 2x" media="all and (min-width: 600px) and (max-width: 959px)" type="image/jpeg"/> <source srcset="/sites/default/files/styles/subpage_banner_mobile/public/2019-04/Alto_Cariri_2.jpg?h=10d202d3&amp;itok=q62LfZZj 1x, /sites/default/files/styles/subpage_banner_mobile_2x/public/2019-04/Alto_Cariri_2.jpg?h=10d202d3&amp;itok=qV8XAA2o 2x" type="image/jpeg"/> <!--[if IE 9]></video><![endif]--> <img src="/sites/default/files/styles/subpage_banner_wide/public/2019-04/Alto_Cariri_2.jpg?h=10d202d3&amp;itok=vPFO59g9" alt="Alto Cariri" typeof="foaf:Image" /> </picture> </div> <div class="striping view view-eva view-country-map view-id-country_map view-display-id-entity_view_2 js-view-dom-id-cb0b378b78056c0624a78b6f57323f130e8cb4e5d6ec7b7b2e123f0ce60f7bec"> <div class="views-row"> <div class="views-field views-field-fieldset"><span class="field-content"><div class="category-links"> <div class="views-field views-field-field-country-category-1"><div class="field-content"><span class="small-caps">Category(s):</span></div></div><div class="views-field views-field-field-country-category"><div class="field-content"><div class="item-list"><ul><li><a href="/taxonomy/term/8" hreflang="en">National Policy</a></li><li><a href="/taxonomy/term/9" hreflang="en">Professional Association</a></li></ul></div></div></div></div> </span></div> </div> </div> <div class="field-country-policy-practice"><p><strong>National Legislation</strong></p> <p>In Brazil, environmental education is established and regulated by <a href="http://www.planalto.gov.br/ccivil_03/leis/L9795.htm">Law No. 9,795/99</a> and <a href="https://www.planalto.gov.br/ccivil_03/decreto/2002/d4281.htm">Decree No. 4,281/02</a>.

Beyond national policy, Brazil is also seeking to increase citizen engagement in environmental education and community action through a range of programs that support states and territories in increasing access to quality education materials and opportunities for civic engagement.</p></div> Wed, 03 Apr 2019 10:24:23 +0000 admin 148 at https://thegeep.org Canada https://thegeep.org/learn/countries/canada Canada<span class="field field--name-uid field--type-entity-reference field--label-hidden"><span lang="" about="/user/1" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype="">admin</span></span> <span class="field field--name-created field--type-created field--label-hidden">Wed, 04/03/2019 - 10:24</span> <div class="field-top-image-for-subpages"> <picture> <!--[if IE 9]><video style="display: none;"><![endif]--> <source srcset="/sites/default/files/styles/subpage_banner_extra_wide/public/2019-04/Peyto_Lake-Banff_NP-Canada.jpg?h=0d5f3a4f&amp;itok=XAXeEfg8 1x" media="all and (min-width: 1500px)" type="image/jpeg"/> <source srcset="/sites/default/files/styles/subpage_banner_wide/public/2019-04/Peyto_Lake-Banff_NP-Canada.jpg?h=0d5f3a4f&amp;itok=Etx5m4dG 1x, /sites/default/files/styles/subpage_banner_wide_2x/public/2019-04/Peyto_Lake-Banff_NP-Canada.jpg?h=0d5f3a4f&amp;itok=hEj7oWVD 2x" media="all and (min-width: 1200px) and (max-width: 1499px)" type="image/jpeg"/> <source srcset="/sites/default/files/styles/subpage_banner_desk/public/2019-04/Peyto_Lake-Banff_NP-Canada.jpg?h=0d5f3a4f&amp;itok=psNmGKcl 1x, /sites/default/files/styles/subpage_banner_dest_2x/public/2019-04/Peyto_Lake-Banff_NP-Canada.jpg?h=0d5f3a4f&amp;itok=N2ZoW2R2 2x" media="all and (min-width: 960px) and (max-width: 1199px)" type="image/jpeg"/> <source srcset="/sites/default/files/styles/subpage_banner_tablet/public/2019-04/Peyto_Lake-Banff_NP-Canada.jpg?h=0d5f3a4f&amp;itok=ZchflGbx 1x, /sites/default/files/styles/subpage_banner_tablet_2x/public/2019-04/Peyto_Lake-Banff_NP-Canada.jpg?h=0d5f3a4f&amp;itok=v8TOzQ0S 2x" media="all and (min-width: 600px) and (max-width: 959px)" type="image/jpeg"/> <source srcset="/sites/default/files/styles/subpage_banner_mobile/public/2019-04/Peyto_Lake-Banff_NP-Canada.jpg?h=0d5f3a4f&amp;itok=RD_aWDA7 1x, /sites/default/files/styles/subpage_banner_mobile_2x/public/2019-04/Peyto_Lake-Banff_NP-Canada.jpg?h=0d5f3a4f&amp;itok=AcnJE8Sv 2x" type="image/jpeg"/> <!--[if IE 9]></video><![endif]--> <img src="/sites/default/files/styles/subpage_banner_wide/public/2019-04/Peyto_Lake-Banff_NP-Canada.jpg?h=0d5f3a4f&amp;itok=Etx5m4dG" alt="Banff" typeof="foaf:Image" /> </picture> </div> <div class="striping view view-eva view-country-map view-id-country_map view-display-id-entity_view_2 js-view-dom-id-d6e27b767aebead551838f7a01a62f1a1c913e1443d08d25c8bc59a0f6456fe5"> <div class="views-row"> <div class="views-field views-field-fieldset"><span class="field-content"><div class="category-links"> <div class="views-field views-field-field-country-category-1"><div class="field-content"><span class="small-caps">Category(s):</span></div></div><div class="views-field views-field-field-country-category"><div class="field-content"><div class="item-list"><ul><li><a href="/taxonomy/term/10" hreflang="en">GEEP Advisory Group</a></li><li><a href="/taxonomy/term/9" hreflang="en">Professional Association</a></li></ul></div></div></div></div> </span></div> </div> </div> <div class="field-country-policy-practice"><p><strong>National Legislation</strong></p> <p>Approaches to curriculum policy and environmental education vary greatly across the provinces/territories. Most, if not all, provincial/territorial curricula include either goals or language relating to environmental education - to a greater or lesser degree. In many provinces, there is not an environmental education curriculum per se. Instead the approach to environmental education is disbursed - it appears as a topic within other subject curricula (e.g. math, science, etc.) Among the provinces, Manitoba is one that has taken a more active role in environmental education. For example, the Manitoba Department of Education, Citizenship and Youth has established a Sustainable Development Initiative (Unit), has developed a provincial Education for Sustainability Action Plan and has created an Education for Sustainable Development working group.</p> <p><strong>EE in K-12 Education</strong></p> <p>At the municipal level, individual school boards are responsible for implementing the provincial curriculum, and each board makes budget allocation decisions and chooses and/or develops their own curriculum materials. As such, they are a key player in how and to what degree environmental education is implemented in the schools. For example, school boards normally screen environmental education programs offered to students by outside agencies, and may distribute material within their district. A few school boards have created environmental educational resource positions. Some have prepared environmental reports. For example, the Toronto Region District School Board has produced an Environment Report and the Commission Scolaire de Montréal has developed a Sustainable Development Action Plan. School principals and teachers also play a key role in implementing the curriculum, and how environmental education is reflected in the classroom varies by school and class.</p> <p><strong>Professional Development</strong></p> <p>Most provinces have some kind of volunteer associations or networks of teachers that support environmental education. These groups usually focus on teacher professional development and networking, and in some cases include affiliates - those environmental educators not employed by the formal system. A few are specialist councils of the provincial teachers' union, composed of teachers with specific interest in environmental education. The union that represents teachers in Quebec, <a href="http://www.lacsq.org/">la Centrale des Syndicates du Québec (CSQ)</a>, plays a major role through its green schools program, <a href="http://evb.lacsq.org/">Établissements verts Brundtland (EVB)</a>, which offers educational programs, teacher training and support, and certification/recognition of green schools. CSQ also acts as the Quebec Secretariat for Green Street. The Green Street program outside Quebec is hosted by the <a href="http://www.ctf-fce.ca/en/Pages/default.aspx">Canadian Teachers Federation (CTF)</a>, which is increasing its involvement in environmental education on various levels. A number of post-secondary institutions in Canada are involved in environmental education. For example, the <a href="http://www.uqam.ca/">Université du Québec à Montréal (UQAM)</a> holds the only Canadian Research Chair in Environmental Education and offers both Masters and Doctoral Degrees, and Royal Roads University offers a Master’s Degree in Environmental Education. </p></div> <div class="field-country-leadership"><p><strong>National Associations</strong></p> <p>Key national players that focus exclusively on environmental education include the <a href="http://eecom.org/">Canadian Network for Environmental Education and Communication (EECOM</a>), Learning for a Sustainable Future (LSF), and Green Street. Several associations work specifically to promote and advance environmental education in their provinces (e.g. <a href="http://www.eeon.org/">Environmental Education Ontario</a>, the <a href="http://www.abcee.org/">Alberta Council for Environmental Education</a>, and the <a href="http://www.aqpere.qc.ca/">Association québécoise pour la promotion de l'éducation relative à l'environnement -- AQPERE</a>)</p> <p><strong>EE in the National Government</strong></p> <p><a href="http://www.ec.gc.ca/default.asp?lang=en&amp;n=FD9B0E51-1">Environment and Climate Change Canada</a> is the main federal player in environmental education, generally under the rubric of its sustainable development activities and goals. Environment Canada is collaborating actively with others to steward Canada's response to the <a href="http://en.unesco.org/themes/education-sustainable-development/what-is-esd/un-decade-of-esd">UN Decade of Education for Sustainable Development</a> (2005 - 2014) and with helping to move forward education for sustainable development in Canada. Direct federal involvement in formal environmental education is limited by its lack of constitutional authority for education. However, the federal government can and does work in this area through partnerships, facilitating working groups, etc. - and is an important player in this regard. The <a href="http://www.cmec.ca/en/">Council of Ministers of Education, Canada (CMEC)</a>, which is made up of the provincial/territorial ministers of education, includes education for sustainability within its mandate and has completed some survey reports on this topic. In addition, many provincial government departments of the environment have their own environmental education programs, sometimes with both a non-formal and formal component. Some other federal departments are also involved in environmental education including <a href="https://www.nrcan.gc.ca/home">Natural Resources Canada</a> (resources for teachers), <a href="http://www.pc.gc.ca/eng/index.aspx">Parks Canada</a> (education and interpretation in parks and marine conservation areas), and <a href="http://www.dfo-mpo.gc.ca/index-eng.htm">Fisheries and Oceans Canada</a> (local environmental education in coastal communities).</p></div> <div class="striping view view-eva view-organisations-for-country view-id-organisations_for_country

The program provides a nationwide process for advancing environmental literacy and achieving the goals of Taiwan’s strategic plan for sustainable development. The Environmental Education Act informs national environmental education guidelines, an EE action plan (through legislation, certification programs, evaluations, and assessments), and the conduct of government organizations. The national policy also requires that all students and any staff in government and business engage in 4 hours of government funded environmental education curriculum each year. Additionally, Taiwan and the United States work together on the U.S.-Taiwan Eco Campus program to share EE experiences through student exchange programs. In 2016, there were 85 pairs of schools participating in the program (a total of 170 schools) between the US &amp; Taiwan.  Taiwan’s efforts to improve environmental literacy through national policy, engaging programs, and EE certification are being met with substantial success, as the country now hosts over 7,000 certified EE personnel, with over 3,000 of them working in the national school system.</p> <p><span><span><span><span><span><span><span>Furthermore, Taiwanese environmental groups have been actively pushing for the EE impact to grow. Non-profit organizations  such as Greenpeace, Rethink, Green Citizens’ Action Alliance, Citizen of the Earth Taiwan, and Taiwan Youth Climate Coalition, have been going to school campuses, working with teachers, and hosting summer camps/workshops for students. Notably, Greenpeace East Asia’s climate change education program, Green Future (launched in 2020),  has built an online environmental learning platform, a certification system for students as they complete learning modules (which helps when applying to higher education), and various learning materials for teachers or students in the region. </span></span></span></span></span></span></span></p></div> Wed, 03 Apr 2019 10:24:23 +0000 admin 143 at https://thegeep.org Vietnam https://thegeep.org/learn/countries/vietnam Vietnam<span class="field field--name-uid field--type-entity-reference field--label-hidden"><span lang="" about="/user/1" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype="">admin</span></span> <span class="field field--name-created field--type-created field--label-hidden">Wed, 04/03/2019 - 10:24</span> <div class="field-top-image-for-subpages"> <picture> <!--[if IE 9]><video style="display: none;"><![endif]--> <source srcset="/sites/default/files/styles/subpage_banner_extra_wide/public/2019-04/1600px-Fishing_Vietnam_%2810695647683%29.jpg?h=08b866d1&amp;itok=RVo4CPUf 1x" media="all and (min-width: 1500px)" type="image/jpeg"/> <source srcset="/sites/default/files/styles/subpage_banner_wide/public/2019-04/1600px-Fishing_Vietnam_%2810695647683%29.jpg?h=08b866d1&amp;itok=gltzdHLo 1x, /sites/default/files/styles/subpage_banner_wide_2x/public/2019-04/1600px-Fishing_Vietnam_%2810695647683%29.jpg?h=08b866d1&amp;itok=cc31wVfV 2x" media="all and (min-width: 1200px) and (max-width: 1499px)" type="image/jpeg"/> <source srcset="/sites/default/files/styles/subpage_banner_desk/public/2019-04/1600px-Fishing_Vietnam_%2810695647683%29.jpg?h=08b866d1&amp;itok=IuaWWQOC 1x, /sites/default/files/styles/subpage_banner_dest_2x/public/2019-04/1600px-Fishing_Vietnam_%2810695647683%29.jpg?h=08b866d1&amp;itok=3uv4bQNd 2x" media="all and (min-width: 960px) and (max-width: 1199px)" type="image/jpeg"/> <source srcset="/sites/default/files/styles/subpage_banner_tablet/public/2019-04/1600px-Fishing_Vietnam_%2810695647683%29.jpg?h=08b866d1&amp;itok=oNdtbJZu 1x, /sites/default/files/styles/subpage_banner_tablet_2x/public/2019-04/1600px-Fishing_Vietnam_%2810695647683%29.jpg?h=08b866d1&amp;itok=8DNxI0mL 2x" media="all and (min-width: 600px) and (max-width: 959px)" type="image/jpeg"/> <source srcset="/sites/default/files/styles/subpage_banner_mobile/public/2019-04/1600px-Fishing_Vietnam_%2810695647683%29.jpg?h=08b866d1&amp;itok=UHYkWxMv 1x, /sites/default/files/styles/subpage_banner_mobile_2x/public/2019-04/1600px-Fishing_Vietnam_%2810695647683%29.jpg?h=08b866d1&amp;itok=GrZQ7rxj 2x" type="image/jpeg"/> <!--[if IE 9]></video><![endif]--> <img src="/sites/default/files/styles/subpage_banner_wide/public/2019-04/1600px-Fishing_Vietnam_%2810695647683%29.jpg?h=08b866d1&amp;itok=gltzdHLo" alt="Fisherman in Vietnam" typeof="foaf:Image" /> </picture> </div> <div class="striping view view-eva view-country-map view-id-country_map view-display-id-entity_view_2 js-view-dom-id-071ad46f2e365de3d7204e6e30b690aa5fc2c99f4558ddc49d87217ff2f00296"> <div class="views-row"> <div class="views-field views-field-fieldset"><span class="field-content"><div class="category-links"> <div class="views-field views-field-field-country-category-1"><div class="field-content"><span class="small-caps">Category(s):</span></div></div><div class="views-field views-field-field-country-category"><div class="field-content"><div class="item-list"><ul><li><a href="/taxonomy/term/9" hreflang="en">Professional Association</a></li></ul></div></div></div></div> </span></div> </div> </div> <div class="field-country-policy-practice"><p><strong>National Legislation</strong></p> <p>Nationally, environmental education has been emphasized in important environmental legislation documents.

The national government facilitates workshops for senior education managers to strengthen awareness and foster support for integrating EE and education for sustainable development into education policies and programs at provincial and national levels. The national mandate focuses primarily on engaging youth and teens in conservation issues, motivating public participation in environmental behaviors, and encouraging inclusive participation of political and social institutions, civil society organizations, and mass media in conservation initiatives. At the forefront of Vietnam’s current goals to increase the scope and span of environmental education throughout the country is an effort to build an online hub of environmental education experts, organizations, resources, and data to benefit researchers, practitioners, and students and disseminate Vietnam’s environmental education materials and initiatives to broader audiences.</p></div> Wed, 03 Apr 2019 10:24:23 +0000 admin 142 at https://thegeep.org United Kingdom https://thegeep.org/learn/countries/united-kingdom United Kingdom<span class="field field--name-uid field--type-entity-reference field--label-hidden"><span lang="" about="/user/1" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype="">admin</span></span> <span class="field field--name-created field--type-created field--label-hidden">Wed, 04/03/2019 - 10:24</span> <div class="field-top-image-for-subpages"> <picture> <!--[if IE 9]><video style="display: none;"><![endif]--> <source srcset="/sites/default/files/styles/subpage_banner_extra_wide/public/2019-04/Widecombe_in_the_Moor%2C_Devon.jpg?h=242cd5c8&amp;itok=fuGYAz5l 1x" media="all and (min-width: 1500px)" type="image/jpeg"/> <source srcset="/sites/default/files/styles/subpage_banner_wide/public/2019-04/Widecombe_in_the_Moor%2C_Devon.jpg?h=242cd5c8&amp;itok=X6jRQ6TE 1x, /sites/default/files/styles/subpage_banner_wide_2x/public/2019-04/Widecombe_in_the_Moor%2C_Devon.jpg?h=242cd5c8&amp;itok=6jYeaeoS 2x" media="all and (min-width: 1200px) and (max-width: 1499px)" type="image/jpeg"/> <source srcset="/sites/default/files/styles/subpage_banner_desk/public/2019-04/Widecombe_in_the_Moor%2C_Devon.jpg?h=242cd5c8&amp;itok=mBELBrZJ 1x, /sites/default/files/styles/subpage_banner_dest_2x/public/2019-04/Widecombe_in_the_Moor%2C_Devon.jpg?h=242cd5c8&amp;itok=qpYNMmJw 2x" media="all and (min-width: 960px) and (max-width: 1199px)" type="image/jpeg"/> <source srcset="/sites/default/files/styles/subpage_banner_tablet/public/2019-04/Widecombe_in_the_Moor%2C_Devon.jpg?h=242cd5c8&amp;itok=a8Np2bw4 1x, /sites/default/files/styles/subpage_banner_tablet_2x/public/2019-04/Widecombe_in_the_Moor%2C_Devon.jpg?h=242cd5c8&amp;itok=H7cmtSJV 2x" media="all and (min-width: 600px) and (max-width: 959px)" type="image/jpeg"/> <source srcset="/sites/default/files/styles/subpage_banner_mobile/public/2019-04/Widecombe_in_the_Moor%2C_Devon.jpg?h=242cd5c8&amp;itok=0QFKEtFQ 1x, /sites/default/files/styles/subpage_banner_mobile_2x/public/2019-04/Widecombe_in_the_Moor%2C_Devon.jpg?h=242cd5c8&amp;itok=PGvmWoES 2x" type="image/jpeg"/> <!--[if IE 9]></video><![endif]--> <img src="/sites/default/files/styles/subpage_banner_wide/public/2019-04/Widecombe_in_the_Moor%2C_Devon.jpg?h=242cd5c8&amp;itok=X6jRQ6TE" alt="Devon" typeof="foaf:Image" /> </picture> </div> <div class="striping view view-eva view-country-map view-id-country_map view-display-id-entity_view_2 js-view-dom-id-4c6d5a91c64e2efd1491970682b50a5c1590510b2954814ae86c9dc39bb0b7aa"> <div class="views-row"> <div class="views-field views-field-fieldset"><span class="field-content"><div class="category-links"> <div class="views-field views-field-field-country-category-1"><div class="field-content"><span class="small-caps">Category(s):</span></div></div><div class="views-field views-field-field-country-category"><div class="field-content"><div class="item-list"><ul><li><a href="/taxonomy/term/10" hreflang="en">GEEP Advisory Group</a></li><li><a href="/taxonomy/term/9" hreflang="en">Professional Association</a></li></ul></div></div></div></div> </span></div> </div> </div> <div class="field-country-policy-practice"><p><strong>National Legislation</strong></p> <p>All schooling in England is governed by the <a href="http://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/2002/32/contents">2002 Education Act</a>. Section 78 of the Act specifies general requirements in relation to curriculum. These include that the curriculum for a publicly-funded school or nursery school “satisfies the requirements of this section if it is a balanced and broadly based curriculum which (a) promotes the spiritual, moral, cultural, mental and physical development of pupils at the school and of society, and (b) prepares pupils at the school for the opportunities, responsibilities and experiences of later life.” Section 3.2 of the National Curriculum for England provides a mandate of sorts for schools seeking to deliver Environmental Education: “The national curriculum is just one element in the education of every child. There is time and space in the school day and in each week, term and year to range beyond the national curriculum specifications. The national curriculum provides an outline of core knowledge around which teachers can develop exciting and stimulating lessons to promote the development of pupils’ knowledge, understanding and skills as part of the wider school curriculum.”</p> <p><strong>EE in K-12 Education</strong></p> <p>Northern Ireland’s <a href="http://www.eco-schoolsni.org/">Eco-Schools Programme</a> provides a structured 7-step method for improving the environmental standards in schools. The program is pupil-driven and involves the whole school. Every school in Northern Ireland is enrolled in the program and working towards the internationally-recognized Green Flag award. The Eco-Schools program works with many <a href="http://eco-schoolsni.org/cgi-bin/partners?instanceID=1">regional and national environmental education partners</a>. In addition, within the primary years (age 4-11) curriculum, pupils have an area of learning called “The World Around Us” which looks at environmental topics, among others, including social and historical. In Post Primary (age 11-14) there is an area of learning called “Environment and Society” which covers environmental issues among others. These areas of learning are cross-curricular and cut through all subjects. Visit the <a href="https://www.education-ni.gov.uk/articles/statutory-curriculum%20and%20http:/ccea.org.uk/curriculum/">Department of Education</a> for more information.</p> <p>In England, the phrase “environmental education” does not appear in legislation, although there are numerous examples of where environmental issues and topics feature in curricular and schemes of work (for primary schools, see <a href="http://www.naee.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/2015/06/NAEE_The_Environmental_Curriculum.pdf">www.naee.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/2015/06/NAEE_The_Environmental_Curriculum.pdf</a>). There is a similar pattern for secondary education, and for the public examinations that pupils take at ages 16 and 18. A limited selection of environmental topics are covered in the National Curriculum, but an overarching aim to develop pupils' “awareness and understanding of, and respect for, the environments in which they live, and secure their commitment to sustainable development at a personal, local, national and global level” was removed in 2014.</p> <p><strong>Professional Development</strong></p> <p>In terms of in-service professional accreditation, a number of environmental organisations provide such schemes. Prominent amongst these is <a href="http://www.forestschooltraining.co.uk/">Forest Schools</a> accreditation. Further examples are the schemes promoted by <a href="http://se-ed.co.uk/">SEEd</a> and <a href="http://www.ltl.org.uk/">Learning Through Landscapes</a>. None of these is the equivalent of a formally-recognized professional qualification to teach in schools. Environmental educators also engage in training courses offered by organizations such as <a href="http://www.eco-schools.org.uk/">Eco-Schools</a> (operated by <a href="http://www.keepbritaintidy.org/home/481">Keep Britain Tidy</a>), <a href="http://se-ed.co.uk/">SEEd</a>, and <a href="http://www.ltl.org.uk/">Learning Through Landscapes</a> at a national level, and by localized providers such as <a href="http://www.lifeworldslearning.co.uk/">Lifeworlds Learning</a>, <a href="https://www.greenschoolsproject.org.uk/">Green Schools Project</a> and Local Authority Environmental departments. There are a number of networking organizations for environmental educators such as <a href="http://www.meen.org.uk/">Manchester Environmental Education Network</a> and <a href="http://www.leef.org.uk/">London Environmental Educators Forum</a> who organize meetings and training events throughout the year.</p> <p>There is no specific environmental education certification program in Northern Ireland. Environmental Educators tend to hold an environmental qualification, an education qualification, are self-taught, or a mixture of all of these things. There is therefore a wide range of qualifications and different skills in the environmental education sector which are adaptable for many different job roles. Teachers tend not to have environmental education backgrounds, and are more often personally enthusiastic about the topic and self-driven to gather other qualifications, such as Forest Schools or field studies certificates. Educators typically receive professional development through their work places, or individual efforts to expand their skill set. A wide range of different courses are available, but not through one specific organization or website.</p></div> <div class="field-country-leadership"><p><strong>Professional Associations</strong></p> <p>The <a href="http://naee.org.uk/">National Association for Environmental Education (UK)</a> has existed since the 1960s. It is a member association and a UK charity whose purpose is to advance environmental education within early years settings, primary and secondary schools, and institutions responsible for teacher education within the UK and elsewhere, in particular but without limitation by [i] facilitating curriculum development through the provision of resources, information and ideas for teachers, [ii] providing financial support for pupils to visit outdoor education centers, and [iii] collaborating with organizations that have related objectives. Another national organization with a focus on environmental education matters is <a href="///C:\Users\Emily\Desktop\se-ed.co.uk\edu">Sustainability and Environmental Education (SEEd)</a>. SEEd is a registered charity that identifies, promotes, enables and supports environmental education and education for sustainable development in the UK. There are also city-based environmental education organizations such as the <a href="http://www.meen.org.uk/">Manchester Environmental Education Network</a> and the <a href="http://www.leef.org.uk/">London Environmental Educators Forum</a>.</p> <p><strong>EE in the National Government</strong></p> <p>In Northern Ireland, the <a href="https://www.daera-ni.gov.uk/">Department of Agriculture, Environment and Rural Affairs</a> (DAERA) supports environmental education and environmental education providers.</p> <p><strong>National EE Campaigns and Funding</strong></p> <p>Environmental (and sustainability) education is funded in a range of informal ways in England, such as membership subscriptions and fees, project grants, sales of publications and merchandise, and sponsorship.</p> <p>Many environmental education organizations in Northern Ireland are funded in part by DAERA and also through other funding streams and income revenue. For example, the Eco-Schools Programme receives a mixture of funding from DAERA, local councils, and other businesses and charities.</p></div> <div class="striping view view-eva

policies and practices that support teachers in this work can be found. For example, many organizations and groups are now working to raise public awareness of environmental issues and climate change, and reduce the gap between people’s lives and the natural world by integrating environmental and sustainability education into the curriculum, by building capacity to take action, and by influencing policy. The following are particularly significant: cross-discipline references to environmental issues in school curricula, government support for global learning, a wide-spread Eco-Schools program (an international award that provides a framework for schools to integrate sustainability into school life), many outdoor learning programs (such as forest schools) that use the ‘outdoor classroom’ to help young people develop personal, social, and technical skills and build a sustainable future, and national membership organizations with a specific remit to support teachers and schools. They understand that environmental education will flourish where school leaders are supportive and see its merits, and that building bridges between environmental education and global learning is important.</p> <p>Across Northern Ireland, all schools are enrolled in the <a href="http://www.eco-schoolsni.org/">Eco-Schools Programme</a>, which works in partnership with a range of environmental education organizations to improve environmental standards in schools. In addition, the school curriculum in Northern Ireland includes exploration of environmental issues across the curriculum. Environmental educators in Northern Ireland receive training through a variety of approaches; there is no singular certification pathway or training program. Within the national government, the <a href="https://www.daera-ni.gov.uk/">Department of Agriculture, Environment and Rural Affairs</a> (DAERA) supports environmental education and environmental education providers, including by providing some funding for environmental education efforts. Environmental education in Northern Ireland may also be supported by other funding streams, such as businesses, local councils, or charitable organizations.</p></div> Wed, 03 Apr 2019 10:24:23 +0000 admin 141 at https://thegeep.org The Netherlands https://thegeep.org/learn/countries/netherlands The Netherlands<span class="field field--name-uid field--type-entity-reference field--label-hidden"><span lang="" about="/user/1" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype="">admin</span></span> <span class="field field--name-created field--type-created field--label-hidden">Wed, 04/03/2019 - 10:24</span> <div class="field-top-image-for-subpages"> <picture> <!--[if IE 9]><video style="display: none;"><![endif]--> <source srcset="/sites/default/files/styles/subpage_banner_extra_wide/public/2019-04/Duvelskuul.jpg?h=b179e7bc&amp;itok=QyGr5Yu8 1x" media="all and (min-width: 1500px)" type="image/jpeg"/> <source srcset="/sites/default/files/styles/subpage_banner_wide/public/2019-04/Duvelskuul.jpg?h=b179e7bc&amp;itok=6fvsewS_ 1x, /sites/default/files/styles/subpage_banner_wide_2x/public/2019-04/Duvelskuul.jpg?h=b179e7bc&amp;itok=2mbBHJLB 2x" media="all and (min-width: 1200px) and (max-width: 1499px)" type="image/jpeg"/> <source srcset="/sites/default/files/styles/subpage_banner_desk/public/2019-04/Duvelskuul.jpg?h=b179e7bc&amp;itok=dSaQO2Vp 1x, /sites/default/files/styles/subpage_banner_dest_2x/public/2019-04/Duvelskuul.jpg?h=b179e7bc&amp;itok=1GzPNLJD 2x" media="all and (min-width: 960px) and (max-width: 1199px)" type="image/jpeg"/> <source srcset="/sites/default/files/styles/subpage_banner_tablet/public/2019-04/Duvelskuul.jpg?h=b179e7bc&amp;itok=ApYBF9BX 1x, /sites/default/files/styles/subpage_banner_tablet_2x/public/2019-04/Duvelskuul.jpg?h=b179e7bc&amp;itok=v7zKyQYw 2x" media="all and (min-width: 600px) and (max-width: 959px)" type="image/jpeg"/> <source srcset="/sites/default/files/styles/subpage_banner_mobile/public/2019-04/Duvelskuul.jpg?h=b179e7bc&amp;itok=KpUUuZJ3 1x, /sites/default/files/styles/subpage_banner_mobile_2x/public/2019-04/Duvelskuul.jpg?h=b179e7bc&amp;itok=mr7GctcK 2x" type="image/jpeg"/> <!--[if IE 9]></video><![endif]--> <img src="/sites/default/files/styles/subpage_banner_wide/public/2019-04/Duvelskuul.jpg?h=b179e7bc&amp;itok=6fvsewS_" alt="Duvelskuul" typeof="foaf:Image" /> </picture> </div> <div class="striping view view-eva view-country-map view-id-country_map view-display-id-entity_view_2 js-view-dom-id-376baa1edb0b872b6a3564f36a9c571343bee68edc948eb6b0ee6d30c34bf08e"> <div class="views-row"> <div class="views-field views-field-fieldset"><span class="field-content"><div class="category-links"> <div class="views-field views-field-field-country-category-1"><div class="field-content"><span class="small-caps">Category(s):</span></div></div><div class="views-field views-field-field-country-category"><div class="field-content"><div class="item-list"><ul><li><a href="/taxonomy/term/10" hreflang="en">GEEP Advisory Group</a></li><li><a href="/taxonomy/term/9" hreflang="en">Professional Association</a></li></ul></div></div></div></div> </span></div> </div> </div> <div class="field-country-policy-practice"><p><strong>National Legislation</strong></p> <p>The Netherlands has a long history of environmental education and Education for Sustainability policies, which began with the European Year for Nature Conservation in 1970.

National policy also supports new forms of monitoring and evaluation for the country’s prominent environmental education programs, such as Groen Gelinkt, a web hub that offers teaching materials and information about environmental education and sustainability. The Netherlands also facilitates national education networks for sustainability in higher education and vocational practices to lobby at all levels and achieve key objectives for engaging students in sustainable development curricula, research, and practice.</p></div> Wed, 03 Apr 2019 10:24:23 +0000 admin 140 at https://thegeep.org Australia https://thegeep.org/learn/countries/australia Australia<span class="field field--name-uid field--type-entity-reference field--label-hidden"><span lang="" about="/user/1" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype="">admin</span></span> <span class="field field--name-created field--type-created field--label-hidden">Wed, 04/03/2019 - 10:24</span> <div class="field-top-image-for-subpages"> <picture> <!--[if IE 9]><video style="display: none;"><![endif]--> <source srcset="/sites/default/files/styles/subpage_banner_extra_wide/public/2019-04/Uluru%2C_helicopter_view%2C_cropped.jpg?h=fb2f6f0b&amp;itok=cEp81OkW 1x" media="all and (min-width: 1500px)" type="image/jpeg"/> <source srcset="/sites/default/files/styles/subpage_banner_wide/public/2019-04/Uluru%2C_helicopter_view%2C_cropped.jpg?h=fb2f6f0b&amp;itok=h-6ylOWt 1x, /sites/default/files/styles/subpage_banner_wide_2x/public/2019-04/Uluru%2C_helicopter_view%2C_cropped.jpg?h=fb2f6f0b&amp;itok=q_ta-aRr 2x" media="all and (min-width: 1200px) and (max-width: 1499px)" type="image/jpeg"/> <source srcset="/sites/default/files/styles/subpage_banner_desk/public/2019-04/Uluru%2C_helicopter_view%2C_cropped.jpg?h=fb2f6f0b&amp;itok=D3pzXv0S 1x, /sites/default/files/styles/subpage_banner_dest_2x/public/2019-04/Uluru%2C_helicopter_view%2C_cropped.jpg?h=fb2f6f0b&amp;itok=0R7Z0nwy 2x" media="all and (min-width: 960px) and (max-width: 1199px)" type="image/jpeg"/> <source srcset="/sites/default/files/styles/subpage_banner_tablet/public/2019-04/Uluru%2C_helicopter_view%2C_cropped.jpg?h=fb2f6f0b&amp;itok=XQXIVHyG 1x, /sites/default/files/styles/subpage_banner_tablet_2x/public/2019-04/Uluru%2C_helicopter_view%2C_cropped.jpg?h=fb2f6f0b&amp;itok=46cOtsTH 2x" media="all and (min-width: 600px) and (max-width: 959px)" type="image/jpeg"/> <source srcset="/sites/default/files/styles/subpage_banner_mobile/public/2019-04/Uluru%2C_helicopter_view%2C_cropped.jpg?h=fb2f6f0b&amp;itok=KyXf0VoZ 1x, /sites/default/files/styles/subpage_banner_mobile_2x/public/2019-04/Uluru%2C_helicopter_view%2C_cropped.jpg?h=fb2f6f0b&amp;itok=ZUBXoGuR 2x" type="image/jpeg"/> <!--[if IE 9]></video><![endif]--> <img src="/sites/default/files/styles/subpage_banner_wide/public/2019-04/Uluru%2C_helicopter_view%2C_cropped.jpg?h=fb2f6f0b&amp;itok=h-6ylOWt" alt="Uluru" typeof="foaf:Image" /> </picture> </div> <div class="striping view view-eva view-country-map view-id-country_map view-display-id-entity_view_2 js-view-dom-id-addaa7b6a9f54a5d9baa8cd399f1a8f257ede05f7bfdab0e080274ea6dd84070"> <div class="views-row"> <div class="views-field views-field-fieldset"><span class="field-content"><div class="category-links"> <div class="views-field views-field-field-country-category-1"><div class="field-content"><span class="small-caps">Category(s):</span></div></div><div class="views-field views-field-field-country-category"><div class="field-content"><div class="item-list"><ul><li><a href="/taxonomy/term/10" hreflang="en">GEEP Advisory Group</a></li><li><a href="/taxonomy/term/9" hreflang="en">Professional Association</a></li></ul></div></div></div></div> </span></div> </div> </div> <div class="field-country-policy-practice"><p><strong>National Legislation</strong></p> <p>In 2005, the <a href="https://www.environment.gov.au/">Australian Government Department of the Environment and Heritage</a> developed a document entitled <a href="http://www.environment.gov.au/system/files/resources/1b93d012-6dfb-4ceb-a37f-209a27dca0e0/files/sustainable-future.pdf">Educating for a Sustainable Future: A National Environmental Education Statement for Australian Schools</a>. This statement provides a description of the nature and purpose of environmental education for sustainability through all years of schooling, including a vision and a framework for its implementation. It is intended for teachers, schools and their communities, education systems and developers of curriculum materials. It is also intended as a companion to existing State and Territory policies and programs and does not replace them. In 2009, <a href="http://www.environment.gov.au/sustainability/education/publications/living-sustainably-national-action-plan">Living Sustainably: The Australian Government's National Action Plan for Education for Sustainability</a>, was launched. Its aim is to equip all Australians with the knowledge and skills required to live sustainably. The plan has been prepared in conjunction with the National Council on Education for Sustainability by the Australian Government Department of the Environment, Water, Heritage and the Arts.</p> <p><strong>EE in K-12 Education</strong></p> <p>In 2010, the <a href="http://www.environment.gov.au/sustainability/education/publications/sustainability-curriculum-framework-guide">Sustainability Curriculum Framework</a> was published. It describes what students may need to learn to live sustainably, and considers the most appropriate times and environments in which these learnings should occur. Environmental education initiatives also exist at the regional level. For example, the <a href="http://www.hopeaustralia.org.au/uploads/media/Queensland_Environmentally_Sustainable_Schools_Initiative__QESSI__overview.pdf">Queensland Environmentally Sustainable Schools Initiative</a> establishes a network of environmentally sustainable schools that demonstrate curricula connections and environmental action based on ecological sustainable development principles.

The AAEE has three major roles: 1) promoting the most extensive and effective use of education to help people to live more sustainably, 2) supporting its members and others in the sector via professional development, and 3) building greater strength in local networks that facilitate collaboration and skill sharing. They accomplish this through providing professional resources for educators and advocate and lobby at the national and state levels.</p></div> <div class="striping view view-eva

Action Plan for Education for Sustainability. The Plan outlines a national action framework with four primary strategies to prioritize and address the needs of education for sustainability. Additional regional and state legislation sets goals for environmental education and education for sustainability throughout the country. For example, the Queensland Environmentally Sustainable Schools Initiative seeks to establish a network of environmentally sustainable schools that demonstrate curricula connections and environmental action based on sustainable development principles. Similarly, the Melbourne Declaration on Educational Goals for Young Australians outlines strategies for improving educational outcomes for Australian youth and includes a section on creating active and informed citizens working toward improving natural and social environments.</p></div> Wed, 03 Apr 2019 10:24:23 +0000 admin 138 at https://thegeep.org New Zealand https://thegeep.org/learn/countries/new-zealand New Zealand<span class="field field--name-uid field--type-entity-reference field--label-hidden"><span lang="" about="/user/1" typeof="schema:Person" property="schema:name" datatype="">admin</span></span> <span class="field field--name-created field--type-created field--label-hidden">Wed, 04/03/2019 - 10:24</span> <div class="field-top-image-for-subpages"> <picture> <!--[if IE 9]><video style="display: none;"><![endif]--> <source srcset="/sites/default/files/styles/subpage_banner_extra_wide/public/2019-04/Port_Levy%2C_Canterbury%2C_New_Zealand%2C_20th._Nov._2010_-_Flickr_-_PhillipC_%282%29.jpg?h=242cd5c8&amp;itok=MmP6KCnh 1x" media="all and (min-width: 1500px)" type="image/jpeg"/> <source srcset="/sites/default/files/styles/subpage_banner_wide/public/2019-04/Port_Levy%2C_Canterbury%2C_New_Zealand%2C_20th._Nov._2010_-_Flickr_-_PhillipC_%282%29.jpg?h=242cd5c8&amp;itok=zT4K9IUv 1x, /sites/default/files/styles/subpage_banner_wide_2x/public/2019-04/Port_Levy%2C_Canterbury%2C_New_Zealand%2C_20th._Nov._2010_-_Flickr_-_PhillipC_%282%29.jpg?h=242cd5c8&amp;itok=tY0bZDhe 2x" media="all and (min-width: 1200px) and (max-width: 1499px)" type="image/jpeg"/> <source srcset="/sites/default/files/styles/subpage_banner_desk/public/2019-04/Port_Levy%2C_Canterbury%2C_New_Zealand%2C_20th._Nov._2010_-_Flickr_-_PhillipC_%282%29.jpg?h=242cd5c8&amp;itok=IIDJw6Qb 1x, /sites/default/files/styles/subpage_banner_dest_2x/public/2019-04/Port_Levy%2C_Canterbury%2C_New_Zealand%2C_20th._Nov._2010_-_Flickr_-_PhillipC_%282%29.jpg?h=242cd5c8&amp;itok=Nw2IR11C 2x" media="all and (min-width: 960px) and (max-width: 1199px)" type="image/jpeg"/> <source srcset="/sites/default/files/styles/subpage_banner_tablet/public/2019-04/Port_Levy%2C_Canterbury%2C_New_Zealand%2C_20th._Nov._2010_-_Flickr_-_PhillipC_%282%29.jpg?h=242cd5c8&amp;itok=Z8uYrfY6 1x, /sites/default/files/styles/subpage_banner_tablet_2x/public/2019-04/Port_Levy%2C_Canterbury%2C_New_Zealand%2C_20th._Nov._2010_-_Flickr_-_PhillipC_%282%29.jpg?h=242cd5c8&amp;itok=QisnmrWI 2x" media="all and (min-width: 600px) and (max-width: 959px)" type="image/jpeg"/> <source srcset="/sites/default/files/styles/subpage_banner_mobile/public/2019-04/Port_Levy%2C_Canterbury%2C_New_Zealand%2C_20th._Nov._2010_-_Flickr_-_PhillipC_%282%29.jpg?h=242cd5c8&amp;itok=ZAWfH0eH 1x, /sites/default/files/styles/subpage_banner_mobile_2x/public/2019-04/Port_Levy%2C_Canterbury%2C_New_Zealand%2C_20th._Nov._2010_-_Flickr_-_PhillipC_%282%29.jpg?h=242cd5c8&amp;itok=Ls7eOHfD 2x" type="image/jpeg"/> <!--[if IE 9]></video><![endif]--> <img src="/sites/default/files/styles/subpage_banner_wide/public/2019-04/Port_Levy%2C_Canterbury%2C_New_Zealand%2C_20th._Nov._2010_-_Flickr_-_PhillipC_%282%29.jpg?h=242cd5c8&amp;itok=zT4K9IUv" alt="Canterbury" typeof="foaf:Image" /> </picture> </div> <div class="striping view view-eva view-country-map view-id-country_map view-display-id-entity_view_2 js-view-dom-id-84bfc4d7f59b1955ae97c9d4caff2e58288be5fea97661440de60d5c9417b522"> <div class="views-row"> <div class="views-field views-field-fieldset"><span class="field-content"><div class="category-links"> <div class="views-field views-field-field-country-category-1"><div class="field-content"><span class="small-caps">Category(s):</span></div></div><div class="views-field views-field-field-country-category"><div class="field-content"><div class="item-list"><ul><li><a href="/taxonomy/term/10" hreflang="en">GEEP Advisory Group</a></li><li><a href="/taxonomy/term/9" hreflang="en">Professional Association</a></li></ul></div></div></div></div> </span></div> </div> </div> <div class="field-country-policy-practice"><p><strong>National Legislation</strong></p> <p>Although there is no specific mandate for EE within New Zealand there is a guiding national strategy, <a href="http://www.doc.govt.nz/pagefiles/160808/environment-education-strategy-jun98.pdf">Learning to Care for Our Environment: Me Ako ki te Tiaki Taiao</a> (Ministry for the Environment, 1998). This strategy is currently being refreshed through a cross-agency project led by the <a href="http://www.doc.govt.nz/">Department of Conservation</a>, the <a href="http://www.mfe.govt.nz/">Ministry for the Environment</a>, and the <a href="http://www.education.govt.nz/">Ministry of Education</a>. The refreshed draft <a href="http://www.doc.govt.nz/eefs">National Strategy for Environmental Education for Sustainability 2016-2026</a> was available for public feedback in 2016.</p> <p><strong>EE in K-12 Education</strong></p> <p>New Zealand schools are guided by both <a href="http://nzcurriculum.tki.org.nz/">The New Zealand Curriculum</a> (2007, English medium) and <a href="http://www.tmoa.tki.org.nz/Te-Marautanga-o-Aotearoa">Te Marautanga o Aotearoa</a> (2008, based on Māori philosophies). Environmental education and sustainability are positioned as cross-curricular in both of these. Schools are also supported to design and implement environment education in their own school curriculum by the <a href="http://nzcurriculum.tki.org.nz/Curriculum-resources/Education-for-sustainability/Tools-and-resources/Guidelines-for-Environmental-Education-in-New-Zealand-Schools">Guidelines for Environmental Education in New Zealand Schools</a> (Ministry of Education, 1999). In senior secondary school (Years 12-13) <a href="http://www.nzqa.govt.nz/qualifications-standards/qualifications/ncea/subjects/education-for-sustainability/levels/">Education for Sustainability credits</a> can be gained for Level 1 and 2 of the National Certificate in Educational Achievement (NCEA). In 2015, the <a href="http://www.nzcer.org.nz/">New Zealand Council for Educational Research</a> published an update on <a href="http://www.nzcer.org.nz/research/publications/environmental-education-new-zealand-schools">Environmental Education in New Zealand Schools</a>. Toimata Foundation leads the largest single education for sustainability program in New Zealand: Enviroschools. Over 31% of schools in the country and 85 partner organizations are part of this network.</p> <p><strong>Professional Development</strong></p> <p>There currently is no certification program for environmental educators in New Zealand. There are a wide range of professional development opportunities available for environmental educators, however there is no centralized location from which these can be accessed. Opportunities include the <a href="http://nzaee.org.nz/">New Zealand Association for Environmental Education</a> biennial conference; training workshops run by the <a href="http://www.toimata.org.nz/">Toimata Foundation</a> for the facilitators of the <a href="http://www.enviroschools.org.nz/">Enviroschools</a> and <a href="http://www.toimata.org.nz/about/our-kaupapa/#te-aho-tu-roa">Te Aho Tū Roa</a> programs, who in turn provide professional development opportunities to schools and their communities, as well as multi-day workshops on Education for Sustainability; and workshops offered through the <a href="http://www.trcc.org.nz">Teachers’ Refresher Course Commission (TRCC)</a>. </p></div> <div class="field-country-leadership"><p><strong>EE National Associations</strong></p> <p>The <a href="http://nzaee.org.nz/">New Zealand Association for Environmental Education</a> (NZAEE) is a charitable trust with the focus of educating for sustainability. The association includes a national executive and seven branches. NZAEE has a memorandum of understanding with the <a href="http://www.aaee.org.au/">Australian Association for Environmental Education</a> and affiliation with the UK <a href="http://naee.org.uk/">National Association for Environmental Education</a> (NAEE) and the <a href="https://naaee.org/">North American Association for Environmental Education</a> (NAAEE). New Zealand also participates in the <a href="http://thegeep.org/">Global Environmental Education Partnership</a>.</p> <p><strong>EE in the National Government</strong></p> <p>There is no centralized point coordinating environmental education, however the <a href="http://www.mfe.govt.nz/">Ministry for the Environment</a>, under the <a href="http://www.mfe.govt.nz/more/acts-and-regulations/environment-act-1986">Environment Act 1986</a>, has a function "to provide and disseminate information and services to promote environmental policies, including environmental education and mechanisms for promoting effective public participation in environmental planning". Other government agencies with a role in environmental education include the <a href="http://www.doc.govt.nz/">Department of Conservation</a> and the <a href="http://www.education.govt.nz/">Ministry of Education</a>. The <a href="http://www.pce.parliament.nz/">Office of the Parliamentary Commissioner for the Environment</a> gives independent advice to the government and produced a significant thought piece in 2004 - <a href="http://www.pce.parliament.nz/publications/archive/1997-2006/see-change-learning-and-education-for-sustainability">See Change: Learning and Education for Sustainability</a>.</p> <p><strong>National EE Campaigns and Funding</strong></p> <p>Environmental education is often placed in a web of connections with schools, early childhood settings, tertiary education providers and central government, local government, NGOs, trusts, community groups and businesses. Initiatives are usually reliant on a combination of contestable fixed term funds administered by central and local government, NGOs or trusts. Corporate sponsorship and philanthropic interest is growing.</p></div> <div class="striping view view-eva view-organisations-for-country view-id-organisations_for_country view-display-id-entity_view_1

legislation, the country has positioned environmental education and education for sustainability as cross-curricular contexts in its national education standards. Further, New Zealand is initiating cross agency work to develop a national EE strategic framework and coordinate a networking system across schools, program providers, stakeholders, and funders to promote continued growth in long term programs that link schools and learners to community led conservation. New Zealand is also working to provide new opportunities for educator professional development, capacity building for EE practitioners and conservation rangers, and increased efforts in developing K-12 students’ leadership skills and action competence.</p></div> Wed, 03 Apr 2019 10:24:23 +0000 admin 137 at https://thegeep.org
