A "Greenprint" to Promote Sustainability Skills in the 21st Century Workforce via Community Colleges
Input from community colleges and their stakeholders is essential in the ongoing drafting of a policy recommendations "Greenprint." Forty-five national workforce and education thought leaders convened in April at the Pew Conference Center in Washington, DC for "Sustainability Skills Matter," a meeting to begin gathering input and developing an initial draft of the "Greenprint." The meeting was hosted by the Greenforce Initiative, a joint-program of the National Wildlife Federation’s Campus Ecology Program and Jobs for the Future with support from the Bank of America Charitable Foundation. It was co-sponsored by the American Association of Community College’s SEED Center and the Center on Wisconsin Strategy (COWS). Julian Keniry from NWF and Gloria Mwase from Jobs for the Future along with other participants will discuss the outcome of this meeting and the ongoing drafting of the "Greenprint."
