Join us for an inspiring and informative workshop where we will explore the transformative power of outdoor education in promoting inclusion and accessibility for all students. In this workshop, we will delve into the realm of limitless possibilities that nature provides, regardless of physical abilities. Through engaging activities and captivating storytelling, we will highlight personal experiences working with neurodiverse students and students in wheelchairs. Discover how a year of learning outdoors can be successful and enriching, no matter the challenges or limitations faced by students.
Participants will have the opportunity to gain practical insights and strategies for incorporating inclusiveness and accessibility in their own outdoor education programs. From adapting activities for students with physical disabilities to fostering a sense of belonging and empowerment, we will explore creative ways to make the great outdoors accessible to all.
