On August 2014 in Quito, Ecuador, El Salvador was chosen to host the Second COLAM. The slogan of this second congress is “A decade for the conservation of bats” as a commemoration of the 10 years of hard work for benefits of bats in Latin America and the Caribbean.

Support the Congress .The support will be used to reduce the costs of the event and the participants, especially those from students of the region.

Mario Salomone, Secretary-General of the WEEC Network and David Zandvliet, Congress chair 2017, would like to invite you to attend the 9th World Environmental Education Congress which takes place September 9-15, 2017 in Vancouver, BC, Canada.

The World Environmental Education Congress (WEEC) is an international congress addressing education for environment and sustainability. WEEC 2017 is the 9th congress and will feature the theme of Culture/Environment: Weaving New Connections.

The congress is an international meeting point for everyone working with education for environment and sustainable future or who has an interest in the field. WEEC 2017 will be an excellent opportunity to learn more about the latest in environmental and sustainability education, to discuss with people from all over the world, to share your own work and to learn from others. «We expect participants from a wide range of countries – say the organizers – and so invite you to add your ideas and energy to the mix. From the congress we aim to build a relevant network among environmental NGO’s, civil society associations, universities, local authorities as well as institutions from any level». WEEC congresses have received UNESCO and UNEP patronage and in many cases the presence or a message of the General Secretaries.

Adopt a Delegate

17 February 2017/0 Comments/in News, Press/by weec

The 9th World Environmental Education Congress is proud to introduce the ‘Adopt a Delegate’ initiative, giving prospective delegates from a developed world setting the opportunity to adopt or part finance the registration and accommodation costs of a peer from low-income countries.

Delegates can support other delegates by donating any amount they feel appropriate during their own online registration process. To encourage co-ownership of the project, adopted (sponsored) delegates will carry financial responsibility for return travel to the Congress, while the donated money will be used to help offset costs for registration and/or accommodation.

With this initiative WEEC 2017 hopes to provide additional opportunities and set up a network with researchers and practitioners from all over the world attempting to help the sponsored delegate’s research both now and in the future.

We thank everyone for their support. All ‘sponsors’ will be acknowledged on the Congress website.

Support the campaign: World Environmental Education Day

13 February 2017/2 Comments/in News/by weec

The worldwide network WEEC calls on the United Nations with all their organizations and agencies, governments, the local governments, the parks, museums, environmental education centers, associations, etc. to celebrate every year, on October 14, the World Day of environmental education.
On 14 October, in fact, is the starting day of the Intergovernmental Conference on Environmental Education (14 to 26 October 1977) organized by UNESCO and UNEP in Tbilisi, capital of Georgia.
The initiatives may coincide with October 14, but also take place in the period coinciding with the 1977 conference (until October 26).
The WEEC network also accepts initiatives that for organizational reasons take place in the days preceding or following that date, provided that they correspond to the spirit of celebrating the founding date of environmental education in the world.

Towards a “World Environmental Education Council”

13 February 2017/1 Comment/in News/by weec

Millions of people and organizations work every day to spread awareness, to increase the knowledge of citizens and their awareness of the environmental challenges of the twenty-first century, to help the changing of individual and collective behavior.
The conferences are the place where all disciplines meet, where each role gives its contribution (educators, journalists, science communicators, researchers, public administrators, etc.), Where the views are compared freely and possibly come together to contribute to the common good.
No matter how each calls this education; environmental, sustainable development, global citizenship, ecological transition …
It’s important to have all the same objectives for the building a greener society, livable, ecological, more in harmony with nature and more in tune with the balance and the limits of the Earth planet.
That’s why the world’s environmental education conference are also the place to build a “World Environmental Education Council”.
