Advisory Groups

Association Advisory Group

The Association Advisory Group is a collective for continuing the development of the ESD profession through discussion and brainstorming. We wish to create a positive, empowering circle where ideas can be shared and explored as we work together towards a violence-free world. Group sessions will sometimes focus on topics and sometimes be open to participant choice. The Advisory Group is a vehicle for the community to inform the Association’s direction and programs.

Quarterly meetings will be held online on Wednesdays and Saturdays at rotating times to accommodate time zones and as many people as possible. Attendance at each meeting is voluntary so that you may attend as many or as few sessions as you wish.

The Association welcomes input from everyone who is working in or aligned with the ESD profession. We welcome those who are new to the profession, those who have been involved for decades, and everyone in between. For the first quarter 2023 session, the requirement for active membership is waived (though we hope you will consider becoming a member of the Association!).

Advocacy Advisory Group

The Advocacy Advisory Group will be formed in Winter or Spring 2023 to involve ESD community members in choosing policy priorities for the Association’s Advocacy & Lobbying Program. We will solicit ideas for issues to tackle in our advocacy and lobbying campaigns which will involve the Association’s own campaigns as well as partnerships with other organizations’ campaigns. For this Group, the Association welcomes input from everyone who is working in or aligned with the ESD profession as well as from those working on violence prevention, women’s rights, and other related social justice efforts. The Advocacy Advisory Group will meet periodically throughout 2023 and beyond.
