Building the GCOOS Environmental Education Sharon Walker

Long-Term Alliance Partnership Education Goals Enhance environmental literacy concerning the GOM resources and issues. Increase stewardship of the GOM through measurable, targeted education. Improve cross-Alliance communication and collaboration to assist other Priority Issue Teams with public E&O.

Galvanize local communities to protect the GOM through education programs and projects. Five-Year Outcomes: Continue to implement PD programs for a wide range of audiences; Conduct annual environmental education and outreach meetings; Increase access to volunteer/service-learning opportunities and activities; Identify and strengthen relations with local, state and regional organizations; and Develop at least five projects that engage the public.

Conduct Public Awareness Activities for the GOM. Five-Year Outcomes: Complete and expand the pilot, CBSM program. Develop and disseminate regional messages for the GOM. Utilize current or advanced technologies to reach audiences.

Galvanize the K-20 community to elevate environmental literacy to create a future informed citizenry who engages in action for the health and welfare of the Gulf and connected ecosystems. Five-Year Outcomes: Expand experiential learning opportunities across all grade levels; Incorporate state standards and OLEP&FC into programs and field exercises; Continue to build programs targeted toward underrepresented/underserved populations; and Provide PD and training with data and best available technology.

Include information on the economic value of the Gulf of Mexico and its ecosystems in targeted environmental communications. Five-Year Outcomes: Incorporate the economic value of the GOM and its ecosystems into local, regional and national environmental education and public awareness; Include in the online digital library information on the economics of Gulf coastal ecosystems; Develop a Teacher’s Guide on the ecological benefits of the of the GOM; and Develop media to communicate the results of the clearinghouse, as well as examples of results of economic value on GOM natural resources.
