Encouraging Environmental Stewardship and Sustainability by Supporting Environmental Educators.
CBEEN is the regional network for environmental education in the Columbia Basin.
Our organization supports a community of engaged and effective environmental educators by connecting them to resources, information,
professional development, and networking opportunities.
Wild Voices for Kids is a curriculum-linked, place-based environmental education program engaging local mentors in the education of K-12 students on the land, history, and culture of the Columbia Basin region.
Wild Voices is a unique program in the Basin as it enables local specialists to develop programs connected to the local environment and tailored to their area of expertise and passion.
CBEEN is energized by facilitating connections, and we are excited to provide opportunities to do so at many events and workshops throughout the year.
This includes workshops, webinars, courses, and annual events such as Educator Retreats, Environmental Education Leadership Clinic, and Celebrations of Environmental Education.
We are pleased to provide you with some of the best environmental education resources available!
This includes our Funding Directory, Organization Directory, Teaching Resources, Professional Development Bursaries, Job and Volunteer Board, Curriculum Resources, and more!

🌎 Earth Day, April 22 🌱
This Earth Day, the District of Invermere would like to thank the many environmental stewards in the Columbia Valley who work every day to care for the land, water, and wildlife that make our region so special.
From volunteers and educators to local organizations, land managers, and residents (including DOI's very own, Josh) your dedication helps protect Lake Windermere, our parks, and the surrounding natural areas we all rely on and enjoy.
Today, we invite everyone to take part by picking up litter in your neighbourhood, supporting a local environmental group, reducing household waste, conserving water, or choosing to walk or cycle when you can. Small actions, taken together, help create lasting change.
Thank you for leading by example and helping ensure a healthy environment for current and future generations.
And a big thanks to anyone in the community that we missed. Feel free to tag some people below! 💚
