Sustainability in Higher Education

About This Collection

This collection was inspired by our coverage of the The Association for the Advancement of Sustainability (AASHE) 2014 Annual Conference held in Portland, Oregon in October, 2014.

As we grow the collection we intend to feature institutes such as the Cambridge Institute for Sustainability Leadership and other organizations of higher learning focused on increasing the adoption of sustainability principles and practices.

Sustainability and Higher Education by Stephanie Herrera

Stephanie Herrera is Executive Director of the Association for the Advancement of Sustainability (AASHE). She brings over 20 years of leadership and management experience coupled with a lifetime of experience and passion for sustainable development and social justice. Having grown up on a Superfund hazard site located in the Denver neighborhood of Globeville, she is engaged with the struggles of impoverished communities and their efforts to address their health and economic issues. Stephanie's grandparents inspired her by participating in the class action suit that led to the Superfund Site designation and, ultimately, site clean up.

Produced by Ruth Ann Barrett of EarthSayers.tv with Barry Heidt of GeoSpirit.tv at the AASHE Conference 2014 in Portland, Oregon, October 28, 2014.
