Educating for Sustainability

Alanna Carswell and Marlene Fellows attended the "Educating for Sustainability" Symposium offered by the Museums Association of Saskatchewan on 23 May 2013 in Saskatoon. 

Marni Gittleman lead a session called "Values: A Starting Point for Sustainability" that explored the role values make in decision making and community engagement. 

Dr. Glenn Sutter lead the "Greenburg session" in which we took on the role of a stakeholder in an imaginary community, and participated in creating a plan for building a more sustainable community.

The symposium was educational and engaging and best of all, was meeting and making personal and broad connections with the symposium attendees.
