EE 30 Under 30 Alumni

Since 2016, NAAEE's EE 30 Under 30 program has recognized 301 individuals from 57 countries who are making a difference through environmental education. To address today’s complex challenges, we need a wide range of perspectives, skills, and experiences. EE 30 Under 30 celebrates the unique and passionate leadership of talented young leaders around the world and gives them a professional boost to increase their impact. Each year our awardees join a growing alumni network of inspiring environmental education leaders and receive ongoing opportunities to network, grow professionally, and promote their work. 

Since 2020, a number of EE 30 Under 30 alumni have been supported by the Changemaker Grants program, which provides financial and professional development support to bring new transformative ideas to life and sustain their ongoing work. The EE 30 Under 30 and Changemaker Grants programs are made possible by the Global Environmental Education Partnership (GEEP) and the Sam and Mary Lawrence Foundation. Additional support was provided by the Environmental Stewardship Fund, a fund of Tides Foundation.
