Advancing Environmental and Climate Change Education

EEON is an independent organisation of educators and advocates dedicated to promoting high-quality environmental and climate change education in Ontario. This education should be holistic, systems-oriented and informed by decolonial perspectives.  

We believe that Environmental Education in our K-12 schools must be increased in scope, status and funding to meet the climate emergency head on - supporting our children in this challenge. Ecological literacy and climate awareness through a lens of social justice and equity -- in every classroom, for every student. This is our goal.

​

We aim to share research and resources, build alliances and connections with other organisations and individuals, and promote understanding of best practices in environmental education, toward achieving a sustainable and just society.
