Environmental Education Council of Ohio

Home

Environmental education (EE) is education in, about, and for the environment. Education in the environment helps people develop sensitivity to their surroundings and the natural world. Education about the environment promotes understanding of the natural, physical, and social systems that make up our environment. Education for the environment motivates people to work to improve the environment.

The Environmental Education Council of Ohio (EECO) provides leadership and resources for environmental education throughout the state of Ohio. EECO serves all Ohio citizens by:

Being a clearinghouse for EE resources and information
Providing outreach to educators
Coordinating statewide activities and leadership in EE
Advocating for high quality, accessible EE throughout the state
Promoting collaboration among agencies, organizations, and institutions interested in advancing EE in Ohio

The Environmental Education Council of Ohio receives generous partnership support from the Ohio Environmental Protection Agency, Office of Environmental Education. Please take a moment to read the most recent partnership report, and also see the statewide regional priorities. Information about the environmental career ambassadors program is available here.
