NAAEE and NOAA extend transformative eeBLUE partnership

The North American Association for Environmental Education offsite link (NAAEE) and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) are embarking on another groundbreaking five-year eeBLUE partnership aimed at furthering environmental and science literacy to build more resilient communities nationwide. 

NOAA has awarded NAAEE $7 million to administer grants and programs that align with shared goals to cultivate robust partnerships and professional networks, share effective practices, build support for high-quality STEM education, and increase education and outreach for educators and other target audiences. This new round of funding and activities will build on the foundation of their initial eeBLUE collaboration from 2019–2023 offsite link, amplifying efforts to support a society that understands the importance of environmental stewardship and actively engages in it.
