The Overall Plan
Greening the Way Ontario Learns is intended to be a
dynamic, interactive document—a central resource
in the form of desirable outcomes and suggested strategies
for advancing E&SE. It is provided to those who
support E&SE for the different audiences as a guide
for strategic plans and policy recommendations. Individuals,
groups, organizations, institutions, and agencies are
invited to make use of this information in supporting,
developing, or implementing programs for the audiences
of their choice.
One of EEON’s goals is to bring together individuals
and organizations working to support E&SE programs,
and to enhance E&SE practitioners’ ability
to define how and to whom they can best deliver these
programs. Another is to unify the efforts of those carrying
out different E&SE strategies, and make them aware
of one another’s progress and successes. This
document, as a whole, may also be used as a tool to
encourage decision-makers and potential funders to support
the implemention of E&SE programs.
Priority Audiences
Each of the seventeen priority audience sections is
intended to be of particular assistance to E&SE
supporters and educators within that sector. Audience
sections are subdivided into three parts: desirable
outcomes, with indicators of success; sector needs;
and proposed strategies. Outcomes and needs have been
defined to help establish common directions in the evolution
of E&SE in each audience sector.
The strategies included here are offered to serve as
ideas and guidelines for advancing E&SE in Ontario,
by both current and new supporters. This list of strategies
is not meant to be definitive: users of the plan are
encouraged to design additional strategies that complement
their own interests and mesh with their current activities.
EEON welcomes additional strategies and initiatives
to be added to reporting processes.
Readers of the plan are invited to adopt and carry
out strategies that interest them, and to inform EEON
of their activity so that progress can be tracked (see
Adopting a Strategy).
