Dr. Kimberley Greeson serves as core faculty for Prescott College’s Sustainability Education Doctoral Program. As an interdisciplinary educator-scholar, Dr. Greeson’s work focuses on the politics of conservation and environmental issues, with a particular eye towards centering more-than-human entanglements and intersectional and decolonial perspectives. Her scholarly interests extend to sustainability education theory and practice, informed through decolonizing and culturally sustaining pedagogies and critical and emergent (post)qualitative methodologies. She actively seeks to engage a student-centered approach, leveraging community-based experiential learning principles to cultivate inclusive and collaborative learning environments. Dr. Greeson holds a Ph.D. in Sustainability Education from Prescott College, a M.S. in Biology with concentrations in Environmental Education and Research Methods from the University of Northern Colorado, and a B.S. in Zoology from Colorado State University.
