Synopsis

Environmental education and communication projects are used in schools, communities, parks and wildlife preserves. This lively manual illustrates some of the most successful of these projects from around the world and provides program ideas for professionals as well as those involved part-time in environmental education. Over forty unique projects -- from a puppet show in Guatemala that explains the consequences of deforestation, to an air-pollution monitoring program with youth in Brazil -- highlight the strategies that have worked for environmental educators, program directors, and their financial supporters. It includes sections that focus on sustainable community development, creating change in school systems, using the mass media, fostering environmental policy, supplementing formal education, organising non-formal environmental education, and building local capacity.
