How Can We Assess ‘Connection to Nature’?
Are you interested in understanding your audiences’ relationships with nature? Do you need to demonstrate to funders that your programs increase learners’ connection to nature?
Watch Bruce Young, North American Association for Environmental Education, in this recording from 2021 for a summary of the Practitioner’s Guide to Assessing Connection to Nature, a guidebook for helping measure this concept. The guidebook provided practitioners, organizations, researchers, and others with a “one-stop shop” for measuring nature connections in EE programming.
