Everything we do is rooted in thoughtful reflection and research. We explore how students and teachers experience and connect with the natural world, uncovering stories and insights that guide how we engage with learners and how we design our nature-based learning and approaches. Through gap analysis especially in the context of the Global South, we keep our work grounded, contextual, and evolving. Through our research, we aim to inform our own practice and support the wider nature education community in reimagining how everyday nature can be meaningfully and seamlessly woven into teaching–learning spaces.
