    Towards an emergent curriculum for climate justice adult educators/activists
    (Australian Journal of Adult Learning, 2022) Walters, S; von Kotze, A; O'Neil, J.K
    Ecoliteracy is essential for adult educators/activists en route to creating ecoliterate populations. Working cooperatively with other networks in the spirit of a ‘solidarity economy’, a group within the PIMA network has run a climate justice education programme through a series of webinars. We describe and analyse a case story of an emergent climate justice curriculum in action. We use an ecofeminist analysis to understand the relational entanglement of ecological breakdown, capitalism, colonialism, racism and patriarchy which in part undergird the breaching of planetary boundaries. We identify five inquiry-based themes which are suggestive as coordinates for orientating curricula for adult educators/activists learning climate justice. One of these is the importance of building ecoliterate alliances through collaborative action as we face the ‘socio-ecological hurricane’ which is bearing down.
