Welcome
Welcome to the first issue of CE Strategy News. A key to the AFWA conservation education strategy is good communication. This newsletter will keep you up to date on the work of the strategy. The materials, tools and strategies are designed to help us strengthen conservation education efforts in our agencies and organizations. We hope this newsletter will inspire you to use materials developed by this project, and more importantly, to get involved by providing feedback, joining one of the many committees, and providing insight from your agency or organization's perspective. We are currently focusing efforts in the following areas: outdoor skills in formal education settings, social science and technological connections to field investigations, development and access of outdoor classrooms and schoolyard habitat, connecting with children and nature, and evaluating our efforts. Please send an email or give me a call if you would like to be involved or have comments on how we can best address needs and barriers you face.
Keep up the great work. Remember the words of Mark Duda "No conservation education = no conservation"
