NaturED

The peer group project NaturEd is a part of the Certificate on Sustainable Development and Social Innovation offered by the University of Luxembourg. It is a student-based initiative with new students every year focusing on environmental education, especially biodiversity.

To achieve this, we established an outdoor classroom, accessible for teachers, kindergarteners, or simply a study group of students. For this, we arranged tree logs in a circle, serving classes and groups as a dynamic teaching option. With this, we finished stage one, which is visible in the photo. Currently, we are planning to arrange the remaining parts of the concept visible on the graph. However, the site is already frequently used for diverse purposes.

The green space has a positive impact on natural habitats and allows users to engage with the surrounding biodiversity. It invites students and citizens to connect with nature through experiential learning experiences emphasizing the importance of biodiversity and pollinators. It offers great opportunities to teach about habitats and ecosystems, human-made biodiversity loss, sustainable urban planning, and a more nature-based lifestyle. You can plan a lesson or a workshop - or simply enjoy your coffee while watching bees collecting pollen.

Furthermore, tailored learning and teaching material for different age groups is provided on our main website.

Are you a teacher, social worker, or simply someone with an idea? You can use our calendar to book the classroom for free. The calendar allows you to see if the site is free at your desired appointment and reserve it while allowing us to keep track of the utilization of the site.
