I got such a buzz from talking about images of climate justice with this brilliant group of young people. Highlight of Geographical Association #GAConf24, which in itself exceeded my expectations (again!)

Brilliant to see this video out now of a really inspiring event. I was there and the energy in the room from teachers and speakers was fantastic, tons of ideas were shared and sparked for incorporating climate and sustainability across learning.

I LOVED being interviewed about eco education and climate justice by the wonderful Doccy B 🌿🌿🦔🌿🌿🐝🌿 for Ministry of Eco Education | sustainable schools this week. Hope there are some useful and hopeful thoughts in there for educators of all stripes 💚:) Newcastle University Academic Track Newcastle University Geography Geographical Association Royal Geographical Society (with IBG) Newcastle University
