A key component of effective environmental education is working with the communities you're helping, even letting them lead. Joy Munthali, founder of Green Girls Platform, speaks to the process that has led to meaningful and longlasting partnerships both with communities and funders.
"We need education that works for young people, education that works for children, and education that works in our context. And the only way we can learn that is if we are connected, if we have the networks that we need. "As Joy details, part of strong partnerships in mitigating the effects of climate change is creating a safe space for the community to drive solutions. If an organization provides a solution that doesn't fit the culture of the people receiving it, the solution won't be successful and the community won't feel the benefits of those efforts.
"If we have a space that they can just come and share what they think works or what the wildest dream is, and then make that happen, they are assured that this is something that is going to help them to enjoy their human rights."

Explore the urban wilderness with conservation educator Jaime González as he talks about the evolution of the conservation field as well as his own growth as an educator. Having grown up in Houston, Texas, Jaime shares about the impact a "nature-deprived" community has on our perception of where beauty, wonder, and yes, conservation can take place.
As Jaime explains, urban forests, prairies, and green spaces have the power to reduce the environmental and health-related inequities brought by the historically dichotomous perception of nature as a separate entity from developed urban areas. A passionate advocate for the One Health approach to conservation, Jaime's journey as a prairie conservationist, environmental educator, and community steward continues to build year over year and across his growing network of individuals of all ages.
Jaime delights in connecting youth, particularly of underrepresented groups, to opportunities for meaningful engagement in nature. Read more about Jaime's work on the Student Conservation Association’s Urban Green Page.
Follow along with Jaime's passion for art and conservation on LinkedIn and Instagram.
