Past Program

There is growing momentum worldwide to make school grounds greener as a sensible and thoughtful approach to increase climate resilience and improve health and education outcomes, especially for those most impacted by systems of inequity and environmental injustices.  What are examples of success from around the world and what are the barriers to creating green school grounds at scale?   

This six-part online program is part of an 18-month project to identify and disseminate successful approaches to school ground greening from around the world to influence and help us, as a society, make significant progress in addressing complex interrelated problems. This project will be led by Children & Nature Network, in partnership with Salzburg Global Seminar, the International School Grounds Alliance, International Union for the Conservation of Nature, #NatureForAll, and the National League of Cities Institute for Youth, Education and Families. The project began with a launch event in November 2021.  

This session is the fifth of six online sessions that will take place as part of this program. The theme is research and insight gaps. 

Participation is open to Fellows who have been selected to be part of the Global Lessons on Greening School Grounds and Outdoor Learning cohort.
