Melanie Malone publishes on “Sustaining future environmental educators” and is featured for her work on urban community gardening

IAS faculty member Melanie Malone published an article with three colleagues entitled "Sustaining future environmental educators: Building critical interdisciplinary teaching capacity among graduate students" in the Journal of Environmental Studies and Sciences. The article focuses on training graduate students to teach interdisciplinary environmental methods to undergraduate students and highlights the need for more research on interdisciplinary pedagogical approaches that incorporate experiential learning.

Malone is also featured in April 2020 on the UW Bothell website for her work on community gardens in Seattle and New York. The project entails identifying the sources of contamination in urban community gardens and exploring ways to make environmental justice policies in garden spaces more equitable.
