ÃÈÃÃÉçÇø

Hosted by the in collaboration with ÃÈÃÃÉçÇø’s Sustainability and Climate Action Network, this Forum invites scholars, faculty, teacher educators and graduate students for an afternoon of dialogue, place-based learning, and community-building on Saturday May 31, 2025 from 1-5pm as a pre-CSSE conference gathering. To begin, two panels of experienced and emerging scholars offer ways to re/consider the praxis of ecojustice education in urban environments to stimulate discussion on the critical role teacher education plays in helping our communities shift toward equitable, just and sustainable futures. To enact these discussions, an interactive walking tour invites all to participate in place-based learning activities to support transformative approaches to eco-justice concepts in the heart of Tkaronto (the Mohawk name for Toronto, ‘the place in the water where the trees are standing.’) The afternoon ends with a social gathering to continue informal discussions and build connections amongst those in attendance. This free, in-person forum begins at the Ontario Institute for Studies in Education (ÃÈÃÃÉçÇø), University of Toronto, on the traditional territories of the Michizaagiig of the Credit, and continues on the St. George campus and into the city for the tour and social gathering.. The full program and room number for the panel discussions will be sent to those registered a week before the Forum.
