| Overview: | |||||||||
| In this new online workshop, participants over two days will explore and develop how outdoors environments and places in which to encounter nature whether that be in cities or forests, in urban or coastal areas can become significant inspiration and starting points for generating ecological inquiry that through developing meaning-making and poly-sensorial learning experiences also develops and deepens young children’s ecological identity. There are many benefits for developing an ecological identity including how it facilitates richer relationships, knowledge and understanding about the interdependencies of natural systems, living and non-living relations and connections. It also invites educators to consider their values about issues of sustainability, climate crisis and environmental social justice and what it is they can do to raise awareness of ways to become more sustainable and ecologically attentive in their schools and classrooms. | |||||||||
