Nature Education Ltd.
In nature education, nature becomes a space for play, learning, work, rest and identification. It offers phenomena, objects and materials that encourage creative, manual or playful activities as well as environmental learning.
In our courses, we combine these areas and enable participants to enable people to have intensive, holistic encounters with nature and take steps towards a conscious, loving relationship with nature, their fellow human beings and themselves. To this end, we impart basic pedagogical knowledge, specialist knowledge, methodological and practical tools in the course.
The training takes place exclusively in the great outdoors. We experience the earth, sun, wind, fire, animals and plants directly and unadulterated - our own relationship with nature forms the root of nature education.
