Paula Ratava

• Advisory Teacher for sustainable future in the City of Oulu
• Environmental educator and expert 
• Teacher of Biology, Geography and Langauges

Her expertise lies in education for sustainability in general and especially in climate and environmental issues. She is really keen on hope and solutions-oriented education for sustainability, so her mostly used keywords are probably “realistic hope”, “constructive dialogue” and “the community level of action”. Her working days consist of planning materials, training and events for teachers and students, advising schools in sustainability issues and managing development projects on education for sustainability funded by the Finnish National Agency for Education.
