Martha Monroe is responsible for extension activities, research, and courses related to environmental education, conservation behavior, and human dimensions of wildland-urban interface issues. Her work includes the development and evaluation of curriculum resources for educators and understanding how people perceive issues such as wildfire and woody biomass in the South. She is exploring strategies for engaging people in helpful dialogue and productive change as we move toward sustainability. Prior to joining the School in 1997, she directed the Resource Center for GreenCOM, an international environmental education and communications project, and coordinated the development of the EE Toolbox for the National Consortium for Environmental Education and Training. She was on the faculty of the College of Natural Resources at the University of Wisconsin-Stevens Point and developed award-winning youth programs at the Dahlem Environmental Education Center in Michigan. She was the President of the North American Association for Environmental Education (2006-2007).
