Event Information:
For millennia, Country has been the central knowledge-holder in society, guiding people to live in relational reciprocity and maintaining social and ecological balance.
This workshop offers an introduction to Country as Teacher pedagogy and invites participants to begin considering its possibilities within Environmental Education. It provides a starting point for engaging with a way of knowing, being and doing that honours longstanding Indigenous knowledge systems.
Monty is one of two inaugural national Australian Association of Environmental Education (AAEE) JEDI's - Awardees of the Justice Equity Diversity and Inclusion Award. He was also ACT's Emerging Environmental Educator for 2025. He is presently completing his PHD ‘Country as a Teacher’ at the University of Canberra.
