Educational materials about biodiversity.

This collaborative project arises when we realize that in schools or institutes in the mountain areas, such as the Pyrenees do not have materials appropriate to their reality to work on issues of nature and sustainability. Likewise, visitors and schools or institutes from other places that come to the mountains do not find them either. We would like the children and young people of our territory to know which animals are in danger of extinction at home before those of Africa, for example.

The main objective of the project is that the educational community, natural parks and the whole mountain territory are involved together with the foundation to develop these materials that can be available to everyone, to work specifically on aspects of flora, fauna and ecosystems of mountain environments.

During the 2021-2022 academic year, a pilot test will be carried out with a few schools and institutes in the territory of the natural parks of Cadí-Moixeró and Alt Pirineu, in the Catalan Pyrenees. And later it will be extended to other mountain areas.
