“…In Finland, research into environmentally conscious art education has been carried out for some time, for example, in the field of visual arts education (e.g., Foster, 2017; Huhmarniemi et al, 2021; Suominen, 2016), dance education (Foster, 2016; Foster & Turkki, 2021), drama pedagogy (Lehtonen et al, 2020), and music education (Kankkunen, 2012; see also ecomusicology: Torvinen & Välimäki, 2019; and internationally: Downing, 2013). Globally, there is a growing field of eco-literacy research in music education (Jorritsma, 2022; Shevock, 2015a, 2015b, 2018, 2020; Shevock & Bates, 2019), which aims to give concrete tools to provide socially and environmentally conscious music education. A contribution to sustainable and ecology-focused development in music education is examined in Varkøy and Rinholm’s (2020) and Guo et al’s (2020) works.…”
