Australian Association for Environmental Education

AAEE exists to provide a forum for professionals interested in Environmental Education to come together, network and share their knowledge and expertise. It also serves to represent the environmental education fraternity in national discussions and debates.

The Australian Association for Environmental Education (AAEE) is the premier, national, professional association for those who identify themselves as working in the fields of environment or sustainability education. Through its representative roles on state and national committees and its state-based Chapters, AAEE represents and advocates for the interests of environmental education and educators. AAEE provides an important network of educators, and it supports its members with up-to-date research and policy information, access to resources, and regular workshops and conferences.
