biodiversity formation for the next generation

The promotion of biodiversity begins in childhood. As the Bildungserver explains, the early sensitization of children is essential for the dependency of all living beings. Programs such as "Discetics Discover the Biological Diversity" not only offer project ideas, but also materials to convey knowledge about species and habitats. This promotes children's skills to actively participate in sustainable developments.

Innovative concepts in the field of biodiversity formation combine practical nature experience with knowledge and values. Teachers support materials: Inside, raising awareness of biodiversity and their threats and at the same time arouse the children's interest in nature conservation.
