Social Justice huh?  This is probably where my interests falls in.  I'm a huge advocate for GLBT inclusion in Outdoor Education, in particular GLBT Youth in OE programs.

There isn't a lot of research so far on this topic though I know there is some out there.  If anyone has anything that pertains to this issue I would love to hear it.

I'm also interested in heteronormativity and the idea that OE encourages this in some places.  In case anyone is interested, I have posted a lot of my thoughts on this topic here:

I would love to discuss these issues more with other people.  I'm an open book and I'd like to hear what others have to say.  Thanks!
