Welcome! Your background in microbiology and environmental science, along with your dedication to conservation education and fieldwork, is truly commendable. Excited to have you join!
Thank you Chrissy
Thanks Vimbainashe Eunick, for sharing your thoughts on this important topic. I feel it is more important in Africa and we must act now.
Environmental conservation education is the key if we must achieve full conservation of endangered species.
As a conservationist, I believe passionately in the education of future generations; having worked as conservation education tutor at the Wildlife Conservation Society, Nigeria. I saw the gap you're emphasising on. Environmental conservation education is not incorporated into the curriculum of schools in Nigeria. In fact some students doesn't know anything about conservation.
That is why I am currently volunteering with the Youth Conservation of Protected Areas Program Aires of Africa & Conservation - PAPACO, of the International Union for Conservation of Nature - IUCN to tutor school children and youths also equip teachers with the skills, knowledge and tools to teach environmental conservation education in schools using the syllabus of the Youth Conservation of the IUCN-PAPACO.
No, Vimbainashe. It is operating in West Africa. You can check out the syllabus at this link https://youth-conservation.org/en/resources/
If you are interested in collaboration, you can reach out to Geoffroy Mauvais, the PAPACO coordinator and Magdelain the Youth Conservation coordinator.
