GREEN RIDERS is in many respects a project of The Environmental Education Alliance of Southeast Asia (EEASEA). Kenny and Jamie are both educators in international schools. Working with schools across the region is one of our major goals. Education is at the core of what this is all about…
If you are an educator, or have a thought about how we can connect with students and communities please write to us.
