WAEE Named NAAEE Outstanding Affiliate

North American Association for Environmental Education - NAAEE honors 1 out of 52 organizations that are part of the NAAEE affiliate network. The Board, our staff, many volunteers, and all of you have worked so hard the past 2 years to improve and grow environmental education across the state.

WAEE is unbelievably honored to have received this award and to be a part of the environmental education network in Wisconsin. We won this award in part because of the hard work we are all putting into making environmental experiences and careers more equitable, inclusive, diverse, and accessible while also advocating for environmental justice. This includes advocacy day at the capitol, the JEDIA learning course, community building at our conferences, and more.
