- More about Freire and Environmentalism: Ecopedagogy
This book provides an introduction to ecopedagogy, which is a political and educational vision that seeks to secure the future of our planet by promoting sustainability, ending all forms of oppression, and ensuring peace globally. It argues that environmental justice is inseparable from social justice and should be part of wider debates around globalization, development, citizenship, racism, feminism, neo/colonialization, and linguistics.

Ecopedagogy, an educational approach rooted in Paulo Freire's theory and critical pedagogy movements, presents a concise and accessible introduction to the field. It offers a political and educational vision that aims to cultivate critical, culturally relevant forms of knowledge centered on sustainability, with the ultimate goal of securing a sustainable future for our planet, eradicating all forms of oppression, and promoting global peace. Through the use of examples from various regions worldwide, Misiaszek highlights how different populations, such as gender, race, and ethnicity, are disproportionately affected by ongoing environmental destruction. He argues that these systematic socio-environmental inequalities are often overlooked in environmental teaching. By reimagining Freire's work, Misiaszek emphasizes that environmental justice is inseparable from social justice and should be considered as part of broader discussions surrounding globalization, development, citizenship, racism, feminism, neo/colonialization, and linguistics. The book advocates for global and local approaches to understanding socio-environmental issues that transcend anthropocentric models and North-centric epistemologies. Written for anyone with an interest in environmentalism, this book offers fresh perspectives on thinking and teaching about the environmental crises we are currently facing.
