2026 CAEE Advancing EE Conference

Moving beyond translation, this session explores how bilingual environmental education can cultivate true belonging for multilingual learners. Grounded in practices from Denver Botanic Gardens’ school and camp programs, participants will examine asset-based language strategies, culturally responsive plant connections, and family-inclusive engagement models. Educators will leave with practical tools to design learning environments where multilingual students are empowered as scientists and environmental stewards.
