We work to cultivate environmental awareness and action, create a community of advocates, and contribute to the defense of ecosystems and peoples through empowering education, community-based research, and people-oriented, patriotic, and scientific advocacy.


Education

CEC supports adult learners from marginalized and ecologically-critical communities by developing and providing environmental education courses and training adult educators at the grassroots level. CEC's environmental education curriculum is aimed at helping people cultivating ecological awareness, critical analysis, and progressive action. Learn more here


Advocacy

CEC pursues awareness and advocacy through various strategies: conferences and workshops, information and educational materials production, audio-visual productions, mobilizations and issue campaigns, cultural events and media work. This advocacy is supported by environmental and scientific studies which have served as useful references for communities, academics, advocates, and policy-makers. Learn more here


Community Service
