FORUM - Research and resources for museum education: Conserving Our Urban Nature: Encouraging Environmental Empathy in Community-Based Education Programs
(USA)By Sarah Burroughs. 2012. MA in Museum Education, The University of the Arts, Museum Studies DepartmentAdvisor: Helen M. Shannon, PhDAbstract:?This thesis aims to identify the problems faced by environmental educators working with urban residents. Rather than focusing purely on conservation, informal institutions should make empathy their primary focus. Once people can identify and empathize with nature, it will be easier to encourage them to take part in sustainable practices.?
