Urban Environmental Education Review explores how environmental
education can contribute to urban sustainability. Urban
environmental education includes any practices that create learning
opportunities to foster individual and community well-being and
environmental quality in cities. It fosters novel educational
approaches and helps debunk common assumptions that cities are
ecologically barren and that city people don't care for, or need,
urban nature or a healthy environment. Topics in Urban
Environmental Education Review range from the urban context to
theoretical underpinnings, educational settings, participants, and
educational approaches in urban environmental education. Chapters
integrate research and practice to help aspiring and practicing
environmental educators, urban planners, and other environmental
leaders achieve their goals in terms of education, youth and
community development, and environmental quality in cities. The
ten-essay series Urban EE Essays, excerpted from Urban
Environmental Education Review, may be found here:
naaee.org/eepro/resources/urban-ee-essays. These essays explore
various perspectives on urban environmental education and may be
reprinted/reproduced only with permission from Cornell University
Press.
