Three
main topic areas are covered:
•
Outdoor education, leading to a better understanding of forests,
geology and wildlife
• Information and discussion about current issues related
to ecosystem management and sustainable forest management
• Tools to incorporate this material into the curriculum
and to make environmental education come to life in the classroom
Our theme
is Exploring the Boreal Forest. What
does the forest mean to you? Is it a source of firewood, pulpwood
and lumber? A habitat for wildlife, a playground for outdoor
enthusiasts, or a living laboratory of plant life?
These
and other values of The Boreal Forest are explored during
Summer Institute from our base at Killdevil Camp and Convention
Centre in Gros Morne National Park.
A registration
fee of $250 includes accommodations, meals, and some travel
assistance.
