Welcome to Green Leaves!

Let's talk about environmental education, but mainly let's try to build a network of good educational practices for children, young people and also for ourselves adults. Let's make up a network of good practices starting from small jobs that are performed daily in schools (and not just in schools).
We would like that these experiences were shared here, first of all, as for to go further.
Why don't you join in this challenge?
It doesn't take you much time.
Anyone can contribute to this site, simply by registering and making it become great!
For instance encouraging students and teachers you're working with to share their own ideas and experiences, participating in the discussions, sharing knowledge and passion upon sustainibility of environment....and more!

The experience in South Africa was very important for me, and I'd like to carry on it!

What I like to do?

Message for who has participated to the 4th Weec of Durban with an own presentation

If you have PowerPoint presentation (or other kind of file) used at 4th Wecc in Durban, and if you want, put it in Green Leaves, for sharing with other people.

I think that see again and read those presentations, after more than a year, is interesting and might be an opportunity to discuss and evaluate together the results

You can send me the presentations by e-mail, or place it directly in Green Leaves with a reply to the blog post.

GL is growing and I hope… Continue
