Nature Inclusive Education addresses the need for more regular, direct nature experience in the daily life of (younger) generations to facilitate development towards responsible changemakers for science and society.

It supports the development of skills and attitudes, fosters well-being, enriches learning with experiential approaches and facilitates reflection on fundamental human-nature relationships underlying sustainability issues.
