Making green schools a reality
The Green Schools Conference (GSC) brings together everyone involved in creating and advocating for green schools, with a focus on those leading their schools and school systems toward whole school sustainability. Now in its 14th year, the three-day event provides a platform for the green schools community that inspires and facilitates the progress of the green schools movement.
GSC is presented by the Center for Green Schools in partnership with the Green Schools National Network.
Program
Each year, the conference program includes a variety of educational formats that offer a deep-dive into the most pressing green school topics within the areas of environmental impact, health and wellness, environmental and sustainability education, and whole-school sustainability culture.
The 2024 GSC Call for Proposals prioritized submissions that educate attendees on leveraging new funding sources and models, understanding the intersectionality of sustainability and equity, empowering youth to participate in climate action, and using nature-based strategies for education and wellness.
The 2024 program will be released in fall 2023.
