Founded in 1971, the North American Association for Environmental Education is a network of professionals, students, and volunteers working in the fields of environmental education throughout North America and over 55 countries around the world to promote a healthy, sustainable environment through education. For NAAEE, the goal of environmental education is not only teaching, but preparing "people to think together about the difficult decisions they have to make concerning environmental stewardship, and to work together to improve and try to solve, environmental problems." The association promotes not only a coherent, cooperative, nonconfrontational, scientifically-balanced approach to the full integration of environmental education, but also the integration of this approach into all aspects of curriculum.
