11.01.2022 IMPORTANT CONFERENCE ANNOUNCEMENT It is with great sadness that the organising committee announce the postponement of this year’s AAEE Biennial Conference in Mandurah, Western Australia. We know that this will come as a disappointment to many of our members and colleagues, particularly as the ideas of ‘Changing tides’ and resilience become so important in the current climate.... This is not a decision we have taken lightly and there are two main concerns that have led us to make this decision at this time: First is the uncertainty caused by the current COViD-19 situation, amid the mass gathering bans, economic insecurity and regional, interstate and international travel bans. We simply cannot be certain that we will be in a position to safely bring this conference to you in 2020. Secondly is the responsibility we feel towards our partners and sponsors, whose considerable investments help fund the amazing conference we had planned for you. But there is both good news and light at the end of the tunnel! We are investigating options to bring a ‘mini’ one-day virtual conference to you on September 30 and, most importantly, we are rescheduling the 2020 Conference to the same timeframe in 2021! So stay tuned, keep those abstracts coming, and we look forward to sharing all the big news with you in the coming months. Stay safe and healthy!

11.01.2022 MEET THE SPEAKERS Marianne E Krasny, a professor in the Department of Natural Resources and Director of the Civic Ecology Lab at Cornell University, is one of our keynote speakers for the 2020 virtual ‘Changing Tides’ conference. She leads efforts to teach environmental and climate education Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs) for international audiences, and to facilitate online learning and resource sharing communities for over 10,000 environmental activists and educators ...globally. Dr Krasny conducts research with members of the Civic Ecology Lab to answer questions about how to scale up the impacts of civic ecology practices such as community gardening, litter clean ups and volunteer oyster restoration, and about how online learning can lead to more effective environmental education and stewardship practices and climate actions. She is currently working on a book about scaling up individual climate action, such as plant-rich diets, through social networks and activism. Her other books includes: Civic Ecology: Adaptation and Transformation from the Ground Up (with K Tidball) Urban Environmental Education Review (with A Russ) Communicating Climate Change: A Guide for Educators (with A Armstrong and J Schuldt) Grassroots to Global: Broader Impacts of Civic Ecology Advancing Environmental Education Practice https://dnr.cals.cornell.edu/people/marianne-krasny/ #aaee2020changingtides

09.01.2022 MEET THE SPEAKERS Briony Towers is a Research Fellow in the RMIT Centre for Urban Research. Her research interests include child-centred disaster risk reduction (CCDRR), disaster risk reduction education (DRRE), school emergency management and climate change adaptation in the education sector. Briony’s multi-disciplinary approach to research is grounded in socio-cultural theories of human development and informed by theory and practice in child participation, critical pedago...gy, place-based education and community-based disaster risk reduction. Her PhD in socio-cultural psychology at University of Tasmania involved an in-depth qualitative investigation of how children living in bushfire prone areas of south eastern Australia understand and manage bushfire risk. She has since conducted research on CCDRR and DRRE for emergency management agencies around Australia, including the NSW Rural Fire Service, NSW Fire and Rescue, the WA Department of Fire and Emergency Services and the Victorian Country Fire Authority. She has also conducted research on CCDRR for Plan International and Save the Children in Indonesia and the Philippines. For her current research project, funded by the Bushfire and Natural Hazards Cooperative Research Centre, she is collaborating with children, youth, educators and emergency management agencies to develop effective and sustainable models of school-based DRRE for the Australian context. See Briony in the fourth session of the AAEE2020 Online Conference presenting 'Disaster Risk Reduction Education: Pathways toward a critical pedagogy of place.' https://www.rmit.edu.au//staff-contacts/academic-staff/t/t #aaee2020changingtides
