Canadian Journal of Environmental Education
Call for Papers for Volume 14, 2009
Inquiries into Practice
Volume 14 of the Canadian Journal of Environmental Education aims to highlight the work of practitioners engaged in inquiring into practices of environmental education. Inviting contributions from K-12 education, post-secondary and adult education, community-based organizations, and other venues and locations of environmental education practice, this issue hopes to encourage critical and empathetic inquiry into the understandings and assumptions we work with, blind spots and hoped for future directions in our work, and possible generative dialogues and collaborations. Particularly in the face of the recent upsurge in popular support for environmental concerns in Canada and around the globe, and a growing awareness of relationships with social issues and cultural contexts within environmental education, it seems timely to take a careful and thoughtful look at our individual and collective practices. We also look forward to bringing together this issue of the journal in time to continue the conversation at the 5th World Environmental Education Congress in Montreal, 10-14 May, 2009. We hope you will join us in inquiring into lessons learned, things unconsidered, challenges faced, and possible new directions for environmental education practice.
In the spirit of collaborative inquiry, CJEE would be happy to help facilitate writing partnerships between interested parties—if you have an idea and would like to discuss it or possibly be connected with a writing partner or team, please contact the guest editors. In order to publish this issue prior to the World Congress, the deadline for submissions is July 2008.
