Journal of Environment and Sustainability Education (JOEASE) publishes original, double-blind peer-reviewed articles from across the globe in the fields of science education and environmental studies. The primary objective is to provide a platform for scholars, researchers, educators, and practitioners to disseminate their original scholarly works and ideas, fostering academic discourse and advancing knowledge in these fields. By publishing high-quality research, JOEASE aims to contribute to more effective educational and environmental practices.

JOEASE welcomes a variety of scholarly contributions, including literature reviews (systematic, meta-analysis), empirical and theoretical studies, essays, critical commentaries, case studies, and reviews of publications that enhance scholarly understanding of science education and environmental issues.

Focus of Social Sciences: Science Education
This area emphasizes the advancement of science and environmental education through curriculum development and interdisciplinary teaching practices across all branches of science. It explores strategies for enhancing teacher professional development and educational policy to promote sustainability, environmental stewardship, and low-carbon futures. Scopes include education in natural sciences and its subfields—chemistry education, physics education, and biology education—as well as STEM integration, inquiry- and project-based learning, gender and equity in science education, and public engagement through informal and outdoor learning. This focus also addresses Earth science education, disaster and climate change education, sustainability education, educational technology for science literacy, and new trends in science and environmental learning that empower teachers and students to build scientific literacy and responsible action for a sustainable future.

Focus of Environmental Science: Environmental Chemistry
This area investigates the chemical processes that influence soil, water, and air quality, including the fate and transport of pollutants across ecosystems. It explores green chemistry for pollution prevention, hazardous waste chemistry and treatment, atmospheric chemistry and photochemical reactions, and the biogeochemical cycling of nutrients and contaminants. Other scopes include environmental spectroscopy and chemical analysis, heavy metal contamination, the molecular mechanisms of contaminant degradation, interactions between chemicals and living organisms, and remediation chemistry for contaminated sites.

Focus of Environmental Science: Pollution
This area addresses pollution monitoring, control, and policy strategies across multiple environmental compartments. It explores source and emission inventories, pollution prevention and mitigation technologies, and the health impacts of air pollution. Scopes include soil contamination and remediation, noise pollution management, microplastics and emerging contaminants, pollution risk assessment and regulation, and urban pollution management. This focus also covers transboundary pollution issues, pollution governance, and integrated solutions for preventing pollution at local, regional, and global scales.

Focus of Environmental Science: General Environmental Science
This scope encompasses the interdisciplinary study of ecosystems, biodiversity, resource management, and sustainability. It examines global and regional environmental change, climate adaptation and mitigation, and the legal and policy frameworks that support environmental protection. Scopes also include ecosystem services valuation, land use and urban resilience, disaster risk reduction, environmental ethics, public participation in sustainability initiatives, and interdisciplinary research approaches. Additional topics involve environmental impact assessment and management, climate change education and policy, remote sensing and GIS for environmental and disaster studies, and the roles of citizen science in supporting sustainable development.

Focus of Environmental Science: Water Science and Technology
This area explores the hydrological cycle and sustainable water resource management through watershed restoration, water quality monitoring, and water pollution prevention. Scopes include drinking water purification and supply, wastewater and sludge treatment technologies, groundwater recharge and management, water conservation and reuse strategies, and water footprint minimization. It also emphasizes aquatic ecosystems and water biodiversity, desalination and membrane processes, water and carbon footprint analysis, as well as innovative water technologies that support adaptation to climate change and enhance water sustainability.

By expanding its scope, JOEASE aims to provide an inclusive platform that accommodates interdisciplinary research bridging environmental science, education, and policy, addressing contemporary challenges and fostering sustainable development.
