Connecting Children with Nature Action Forum
A Project of the World Forum Foundation's
Nature Action Collaborative for Children


Arbor Day Farm's Lied Lodge • Nebraska, USA
October 17-20, 2010

The purpose of the Connecting Children with Nature Action Forum is to nurture future generations of environmental stewards by equipping and training 70 nature action teams from around the world to lead campaigns to connect children with nature in their communities, regions, and nations.

What is a Nature Action Team?
Based on two previous Working Forums organized by the Nature Action Collaborative for Children, we now know that multi-disciplinary efforts to connect children with nature yield dramatic results. Therefore, we are inviting the participation of multi-disciplinary teams that include at least two of the following professions within their team – early childhood educators, environmental educators and advocates, designers, planners, landscape architects, community health experts.
