Outdoor childhood: training for adults

Supported by Fondazione San Zeno.

In this training meeting, Fabrizio Bertolino will explore the possibility of risk in outdoor educational activities for children and young people. Starting from the fact that the adult inevitably influences the experience of the younger ones, we will try to answer the question: which attitudes should we adopt to encourage a connection between Childhood and Nature? Through questions and suggestions, we will delve into the issue of risk by sharing and narrating real experiences. We will examine the language used to talk about Childhood and Nature, also thanks to the representation of children in the world of comics, such as Enriqueta, Calvin, and many more.

In conversation with Silvia Mengali of Farfilò

The event is available by registration to a maximum of 50 participants. To register, you can write to XXXXX. This meeting is open to educators, teachers, parents, and anyone passionate or curious about outdoor education.
