Learning About Forests: Outdoor Education Activities for Schools

Learning about Forests’ vision is to see an increased level of awareness and knowledge about the key role forest ecosystems play on our planet. Through its pedagogical process, the programme helps reflect on all the functions forests fulfil; cultural, ecological, economic, and social. Understanding the balance between these functions is crucial when studying how humans can interact sustainably with forests.

This publication contains twenty-three examples of activities that have been implemented all over the world through the Learning about Forests programme. By collecting and sharing these stories we aim to promote outdoor education, inspiring schools and teachers on how to use nature as a classroom.
