Executive Summary
Outdoor learning environments offer unique opportunities for children’s development, fostering physical health, creativity, and environmental stewardship. However, many schools and communities lack the resources to develop and maintain such spaces.
The “Nature Nurtures” initiative aims to enhance outdoor learning environments, ensuring that all children have access to the benefits of nature-based education. This proposal outlines the need, objectives, strategies, and expected outcomes of the program.
Background and Need
Research has shown that outdoor learning has significant benefits for children, including improved physical health, enhanced cognitive development, and increased environmental awareness. Despite these advantages, many children, particularly those in urban and underserved areas, have limited access to quality outdoor learning environments.
The “Nature Nurtures” initiative seeks to address this gap by developing and enhancing outdoor spaces for educational purposes, promoting hands-on learning and a deeper connection with nature.
