The PA Association of Environmental Educators is now accepting presentation proposals for its virtual Annual Conference to be held on March 22-23.  The deadline for proposals is December 4.

The theme of this year's conference - Opportunities for Action - celebrates what makes PAEE so special: our ability as passionate environmental educators to promote change through action.

Unique partnerships, diversity and inclusion, innovative programming, and governmental relations are just some of the topics that come to mind. Presentations should be interactive, engaging and fun.

Presentations should incorporate experiences and activities from community events, school programs, advocacy work, staff trainings, etc.

Presenters are encouraged to take advantage of the virtual format to be able to showcase methods and locations that might not be possible with in-person learning.

Prerecorded content can be helpful to ensure quality, however, presenters should be present to interact and answer questions, unless your content will be 'on-demand', which can feature asynchronous Q+A through chat features.

Click Here to submit proposals.  Questions should be directed to: mgm181@psu.edu. 

Visit the 2021 Conference webpage for more information.

PAEE is also accepting nominations for its annual Awards Program until December 4.

The annual awards are an important way that environmental educators in Pennsylvania can recognize one another and celebrate the great work that is happening throughout the state.
