Environmental
Educators of North Carolina (EENC) is proud to offer educators
the opportunity to attend the Annual Conference at a reduced
fee and receive a one-year professional membership.
Nominations
are open for deserving educators of color (i.e. ethnic origin)
who demonstrate a sincere interest in environmental education
(EE). The EENC Diversity Scholarship funds up to $100.00 towards
registration to EENC's 12th Annual Conference to be held September
28-30, 2002 at the Trinity Center in Salter Path, NC. The Diversity
Scholarship can be used to offset the full three (3) days conference
registration fee up to $80.00, which also includes one-year professional
membership, valued at $20.00, a total of $100.00.
The purpose
of EENC Diversity Scholarships is to ensure that financial contraints
do not prevent participation in the Annual Conference and that
this year's conference adequately reflects the breadth and diversity
of the EE field. It is the belief of EENC and the North American
Association for Environmental Education (NAAEE) that when equity
is practiced by inviting diverse peoples to be seated, welcomed,
and accepted as full participants at the table, a richer dialogue
develops. The dialogue in EE will only meet its full potential
when a broad and intentionally considered representation of all
peoples is actively involved in the planning, design, implementation,
and evaluation of EE.
