We will discuss our trailblazing project Hob’s Adventure - Hands-on Biodiversity that builds a network of school and kindergarten teachers to collaborate on developing new methods incorporating digital tools and active learning methods. The goal is to develop solutions to both local and global problems, from how to teach about biodiversity in a deforested area to how to better understand the various factors contributing to climate change. Our children face issues stemming from alienation from nature, and additional stress from living in a digital society. We hope to lay the groundwork for a future in which children grow up happier and healthier, and with values and knowledge that lets them face the challenges of the 21st century as informed decision-makers. Simultaneously, we’re building an international network of experts and educators who have the network and collaboration experience to work with the post-2020 Global Biodiversity Framework.
