Environmental Education was a passion I discovered while an undergrad and dove in from there. Working to empower our youth to change the world around them for the better is what keeps me going every day. An education in peace and sustainability is necessary for the betterment of our tomorrow.

Alan Reid is a Professor in the Faculty of Education, Monash University. He leads its Education, Environment and Sustainability Faculty Research Group. Until 2012, he worked at the Centre for Research in Education and the Environment, University of Bath, and is active in a range of environmental education research activities and networks, primarily in Europe, North America and Australasia. 

Alan’s research interests focus on teachers’ thinking and practice in environmental education, and traditions, capacities and issues in environmental education theory, research and practice. His research students are strongly encouraged to consider what is necessary and sufficient as environmental education research, including who claims the power to construct and fix a debate about environmental education within particular boundaries of discussion or inquiry.

Applications of this work include editing the 4 volume reference work series, Environmental Education (Routledge Major Works), entries to the Oxford Bibliography on Environmental Education, and working as editor-in-chief of Environmental Education Research.
