2023 CEH Annual Conference: Environmental health education, leveraging tools and resources for actions
Environmental health education relies on a knowledge-to-action approach. The transmission of this knowledge is done through resources, programs and tools that are available and accessible. How can we ensure that the resources, programs, and tools that are available are used appropriately for children's environmental health education and awareness? What actions can be taken to better promote these resources and tools?
To answer these questions, we invite you to join us on January 23rd, 2023 starting at 8:30 a.m. at the New Maryland Center or online on zoom. This event will include enriching presentations, panel discussions and workshops to explore these different themes.
