RIEEA Annual Summit
ABOUT THE RIEEA ANNUAL SUMMIT
Each year, RIEEA hosts a Summit to bring together engaged communities throughout the state and from across various sectors. Nonformal educators, classroom teachers, university/college faculty and staff, students, environmental justice advocates, as well as representatives in the health, business, agricultural, and science fields, meet to build networks, gather resources, share best practices, and cultivate leadership skills for widespread environmental literacy adoption and implementation.
We are thrilled to announce that our 2026 Summit on March 14 will feature a keynote presentation from Sienna Viette! Sienna is an herbalist and agricultural educator who, along with her father, farms their family’s land at Open fArms Retreat in Cumberland, RI. With a Master’s degree in Applied Behavior Analysis and a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology with a minor in Chemistry, she brings a unique perspective to the field of agriculture.
Stay tuned for more information about our 2026 Summit!
We are seeking sponsorships as we depend on our community’s generosity to bring this summit to life.
