Values related to nature with personal actions
As mentioned in , 鈥淓ducation can serve a powerful role to provide meaningful experiential opportunities for learners to match their values related to nature with personal actions that support those values in the larger world; that is, helping people match what they value with how they act in the world鈥.听
Outdoor classrooms, native gardens, stormwater capture, traditional playground equipment, nature play areas, vegetable gardens, trails, trees, water features, and similar projects can offer students, teachers, parents and community members places to play, learn, explore and grow during and out of school time.
Under this approach, the听Global Lessons on School Ground Greening and Outdoor Learning project will collect information about school greening projects around the world with a strong focus on programs that practice inclusive planning and prioritize equitable access to nature while advancing environmental sustainability.
