Nature is for everybody. This outdoor learning experience discusses inclusion and accessibility in outdoor spaces through an equity, anti-racism, and anti-oppression framework. Stories are powerful and those that are grounded by truth connect us all. As National Geographic and Lindblad epedition -Grosvenor Teacher Fellows, we have a deep understanding that everybody’s relation to the land looks, feels and sounds different through storytelling. Come and learn practical ways you can use storytelling to create inclusive and accessible outdoor learning spaces where students’ voices are heard, seen, and felt.

Participants please bring a mobile device with iNaturalist installed (if possible) to this workshop.
