Discovering Nature

Discovering Nature provides support and assistance when it comes to teaching about environmental and socio-cultural values relating to green areas and urban nature by offering an opportunity to discover and experience them first-hand. 

The Discovering Nature micro-network seeks to create and strengthen ties between these spaces, the people who run them and Barcelona’s schools, seeing this relationship as key to promoting shared responsibility for the conservation and protection of these areas.
 

    • To understand the environmental and social benefits of green areas and urban nature and the importance of promoting them in the city. 
    • To learn about the history of the city’s parks, their importance and their connections with participating students by discovering each space, experimenting and collecting information and data. 
    • To encourage participating groups to suggest improvements for nature areas for the future. 
    • To convey and share experiences with the educational community within the school, as well as with those of other schools and organisations in the local area. 
  • Students in the third, fourth, fifth and sixth years of primary school.

    • Stage 1: WELCOME. Introduction to the environmental and socio-cultural values of urban green areas. 
    • Stage 2: MOTIVATION. Researching what the green space was like in the past. 
    • Stage 3: ANALYSIS. A discovery activity about the green area today.  
    • Stage 4: PROPOSALS. Suggesting future improvements to the green area. 
    • Stage 5: ASSESSMENT AND COMMITMENT. Presentation of proposals to the City Council’s specialist team and overall assessment of the micro-network. 
    • Technical and pedagogical advice, both in person and online. In-person or online training for teachers (online sessions, workshops, visits, etc.) and exchange sessions with other schools.
    • A support guide with information, methods, resources and activities, among other features.
    • Digital resources for students working on different topics.
    • Suggested information sheets and templates to help organise the working groups at each stage of the project.
    • Teachers must take part in all three annual training meetings to share their experiences.
    • Collecting information and photographs to share on various communication channels.
  • Registration for academic year 2023-2024 is currently closed.

    The enrollments for the next academic year, 2024-2025, will open at the end of the first trimester.
