Our forest education work brings children, young people and families closer to the fascinating world of the forest. We combine nature experience, education and enjoyment to promote a deeper understanding of the forest and its importance. Our activities make sustainable action tangible and raise awareness of the need to treat the environment and the forest as a resource responsibly.
Our educational forest activities are based on the themes of the forest box.
This enables us to respond specifically to the needs of the groups and provide the appropriate materials.
The content of the event is agreed with you in advance by our forest educators.
You can find more information about the concept and content of the forest box here.
Further information on forest education and education for sustainable development (ESD) can be found on the website of the House of the Forest .
