Webinar with Daniel Ramirez, Senior Manager, Gen:Thrive - EcoRise

Environmental literacy, green schools, children in nature, climate education, e-STEM, environmental justice. Across the U.S., there is a plethora of organizations offering resources for K-12 students with the vision of cultivating empowered, sustainability leaders and healthy, green, equitable schools. Under this shared banner, there is a significant opportunity to join forces and build a data-driven strategy for collective impact.

Gen:Thrive is a collaborative initiative providing shared data and technology tools to accelerate sustainability education and advance health, equity, and climate resilience in K-12 schools. Housed within EcoRise, the Gen:Thrive team is working closely with NAAEE and State Affiliates to map environmental education (EE) service providers across the U.S. and examine issues of social vulnerability, environmental pollutants, climate risk, health, workforce development and green infrastructure. A central goal of the project is to use these technology tools and data visualization to explore local community needs, identify partnership opportunities and drive new resources to communities that need it most. Discover how Gen:Thrive's tools can help you build out programs that target your communities' specific needs.
