Education for Sustainability Leadership Academy 2023-24 - Summer: GROWTH

Educator Programs
Educators walk down a trail outdoors.

Our year-long, residential leadership academy brings together education leaders to form a peer network committed to better aligning education towards the goals of ecological integrity, economic vitality, and social justice.

In the summer, we take a cue from the natural world and look to what is alive and growing. We experience summer on the farm, by the lake, and in the field and forest. We share what is alive for us as educators and leaders in our work.
