While serving as ArtPlantae’s full-time editor, educator, and bookseller, I had the fantastic opportunity to interview artists, naturalists, and educators about their work. Many of these individuals were freelance artists and educators, and I loved introducing them to new audiences.
Today at Talaterra, I am continuing this work and amplifying it by bringing attention to independent professionals who connect people with the outdoors through their work, regardless of their field. Not everyone identifies with the label “environmental educator,” yet many people do this type of work. I aim to find out who these individuals are, what they do, and how they contribute to lifelong learning in communities through Talaterra and its initiatives.
The newest initiative is the EE Forward Summit. I share this with you here if you are interested or know of anyone interested in this professional development and partnership-building event for independent environmental education professionals. Instead of writing a long post about it, I would like to invite you to view the Summit website to learn more about this initiative celebrating founders and how they nurture people’s relationships with nature, specifically Water, as this is the theme for the upcoming Summit.
Thank you for your time today.
Also, thank you for continuing to visit and use this resource. I am thrilled this site continues to provide educators with valuable information.
This is great Tania. So good to hear you’re still engaging in this passion for the natural world. Lovely to hear from you again. Tina SCOPA
