Promoting Professional Development and Best Practice in EE
EE 30 Under 30
EE 30 Under 30
Do you know any game changers who are under 30 years old, or are you one yourself? Since 2016, NAAEE's EE 30 Under 30 program has recognized 60 individuals from around the world who are making a difference through environmental education. This program is made possible thanks to incredible partnerships with the U.S. Forest Service, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, and the Global Environmental Education Partnership.
In 2018, we are looking for 30 individuals who are taking on leadership positions to engage communities, build relationships, and use the power of education to create change. These individuals also recognize the importance of inclusion and equity in everything they do, and as a result, have attracted new people and ideas to our field.
This year’s application process is NOW OPEN to leaders 30 years of age and under from around the world*.
You are welcome to nominate yourself or nominate colleagues and friends.
*In order to expand our network of recognition, previous EE 30 Under 30 winners are not eligible to apply again.
