Barrier-free nature experience in environmental education facilities

Project period: July 2022 - December 2023

Accessible nature experiences are always neglected in nature conservation centers, environmental education facilities and public guided tours. One reason for this is the inadequate range of training courses for environmental education providers. The first step, which identifies possible measures and adjustments, is crucial for the implementation of measures. We support this in the project. To this end, we are holding a nationwide competition, developing a curriculum for all those working in nature conservation and implementing concrete measures for inclusive nature experience in nature conservation centers.
