Sea Stories of Hope
This international project, with partners from Norway, Finland, Sweden and Canada, aims to develop a framework for shifting ocean narratives from pessimism to evidence-based hope. The project explores how examples of and involvement in real-time recovery of marine ecosystems and species can bring stakeholders together to effectively engage with and amplify environmental solutions. We wish to understand how examples of marine recovery can be developed and used by citizens, teachers, students at all educational levels (from kindergarten to higher education), tourists, commercial actors and environmental experts to fuel evidence-based hope for ocean recovery.

Sustainability Education in Early Childhood Teacher Education
This longitudial study investigates early childhood student teachers perceptions of sustainable development and sustainability education in early childhood teacher education.
