Sowing Seeds: Engaging with young people for a lifelong love of nature

A conference aimed at those working with children and young people.

With this event, we will look at encouraging ongoing youth involvement in nature.

• How do we think about succession planning for a new generation of nature lovers?
• What are the entry points into nature-based activities and the potential for future employment opportunities?
• We will look at ongoing youth investment in nature, ways of combatting eco anxiety and the development of citizen science.
