Getting Better Together in Maine:  
Partnerships, Collaboration, and Collective Impact

Last fall's enormously successful Better Together Summit that took place at Pineland Farms in New Gloucester affirmed our need and desire to build and strengthen partnerships across the many sectors that work for people, nature, and communities. Join the Maine Environmental Education Association on March 20 at Chewonki in Wiscasset, Maine. It will be an intensive day of case studies, resources, skill building, and collaborative action planning. Tracks will focus on the following topics, following up on the work we started at the Better Together Summit:
    • New Nature Movement
    • Climate Change Education
    • Youth Natural Leaders
    • Healthy Communities
    • Natural Resource Conservation
    • New Visions for K-12 Education

Learn how to increase your impact in nature education, outdoor teaching and learning through collaboration. Reach more school or program goals than you could alone. Achieve greater impact through public/private partnerships.
Join MEEA on March 20th at Chewonki for a day of inspiration, learning and networking about these topics!  Stay tuned. Online registration will open soon at www.meeassociation.org.
