7th World Congress of Environmental Education

The Seventh World Environmental Education Congress will be held in Marrakech (Morocco) from 9 to 14 June 2013. The proposal to host for the first time a world congress in a country of Arab and Muslim culture was put forward by the Fondation Mohammed VI pour la protection de l’environnement. The previous congresses took place in Portugal, Brazil, Italy, South Africa, Canada and Australia. Because of the political changes since the end of 2011 and the global warming, that is bound to exacerbate the problem of water shortage in Morocco as in many other countries, Marrakech will be an interesting location to meet.

Focus of the Congress: the rural-urban relationship.
