Abstract or Description

Presentation co-presented by Georgia Southern faculty member Lacey D. Huffling with Allison L. Freed and Aerin W. Benavides at North American Association for Environmental Education Annual Research Symposium.

Program

Do study abroad programs lend themselves to EE research if the experience is not explicitly EE focused? This poster briefly compares two trips: Peru (EE focused) and the Netherlands (not EE focused). We explore questions about intercultural sensitivity, connection to place, and/or environmental identity development.
