Environmental education plays a vital role in our societies, given the pressing challenges posed by the climate crisis and the degradation of our environment. As educators, you have a crucial role to play in raising awareness of environmental issues among future generations and in instilling sustainable practices. With this in mind, we are delighted to present our tutorial “Educating for nature conservation”. This course has a twofold dimension: not only will it enhance your pedagogical and didactic skills, it will also give you the opportunity to deepen your knowledge of current environmental issues and the most effective teaching methods for tackling them. This environmental education tutorial will give you the tools you need to effectively communicate key environmental concepts, such as preserving biodiversity, combating climate change and promoting sustainable development. It will also help you to develop innovative teaching approaches tailored to a diverse and constantly changing audience. What’s more, throughout the 7 modules that make up the tutorial, you will find additional resources to enhance your knowledge and enrich your courses and educational programmes. Investing in the training of environmental education trainers is an essential investment in the future of our planet. By enhancing your skills and knowledge, you are helping to prepare tomorrow’s eco-citizens to face the environmental challenges that lie ahead, and to work together to build a more sustainable and equitable world. We therefore urge you to follow this tutorial to receive your Certificate of Competence in Environmental Education, and to share your experience and knowledge with your peers, so that together we can build a sustainable future for all.
