Staff Profile: Dr. Paul Vare Senior Lecturer - Research Development
Senior Lecturer - Research Development
Early Years and Education Studies
My interests in education and sustainable development have taken me from Africa to the Arctic, working with small charities, multi-national companies and the UN.
Starting as a teacher in UK and Tanzania I soon switched to community-based environmental education, firstly in Leicester and then Mount Elgon, Uganda. My career has focused on international education and sustainability projects working for charities but with communities, large corporations and governments including the UN. I joined here in 2013 to follow my interest in teaching and research.
