Abstract

Would prioritising contributions to environmental citizenship be more fruitful for revitalising Victoria's environmental education providers than mapping programming solely to the Victorian Curriculum? In this research report, Monash University's Nicole Cowan, Annette Bos and Alan Reid explore findings from a recent survey of environmental organisations about their journeys and goals. Key takeaways include the importance of ongoing reflection on educational purpose, the value of partnerships in the sector, and revisiting the case for capacity building through mutual professional development.
