Global and local environmental problems such as climate change, air and water pollution, and the decline in biodiversity threaten the lives of all living things and future generations’ access to natural resources. The planet’s future depends on the increase of “environmentally literate” individuals who can look critically at nature and human relations, develop ideas for solving these problems, and exhibit behavior and understanding within this framework.
Within the scope of the Environmental Literacy Networking Project that we initiated for this purpose, we await your applications for the trainer training we will organize in Istanbul, Ağva, between June 20-25, 2022.
Together with the participants who complete the training and become volunteer trainers, we will organize “Sustainability and Ecological Literacy” and Climate Literacy” trainings designed with participatory methods for children aged 13-17 within a year.
