Abstract "Establishing a theoretical framework for arts-based environmental education (AEE) and narrative pedagogy, this seminal volume lays the groundwork for understanding the potential of art, education, and aesthetic expressions to address environmental issues head-on. ... Theoretical and empirical insights combined with indigenous perspectives lead to practical strategies for implementing AEE in various education contexts, providing concrete examples of how AEE can be integrated into classroom settings, outdoor education, and community programmes. Emphasis is also given to the importance of connecting these practices to broader global initiatives such as the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development in the cultivation of a sustainable, liveable future. At the heart of the book is a manifesto for regenerative education -- a poetic and powerful framework for rethinking learning in the Anthropocene."--Page [i].
