Kim Polgreen, OEA Director, gave an online talk on Nature and Sustainability Education to the BGEN group in April 2025.
This talk was on what I had learned from my work at Wytham Woods and in schools. I talked about why I focus on teenagers, the types of nature education activities I run, how I run work experience weeks for groups of students, how I work with teachers, how schools are encouraged to engage with nature education through the wellbeing benefits for students, and my involvement in a research project on Nature and Mental Health and Wellbeing in Secondary Schools.
