The Coastal Plains Outdoor School is partnering with Atelier de la Nature to host our first gathering of educators and leaders in experiential, land-based learning in February 2022. This intimate gathering of people dedicated to building stronger relationships between land and people in the Gulf South region will be held this year at Chicot State Park. If you are working in nature-based, farm-based learning or are trying to find more sustainable ways to live on and with the land, this gathering is for you.
DATE;
TBA.
THEME:
How do we build stronger relationships between people and land? What do healthy relationships and communities look like?
FORMAT:
The first gathering will be formatted around building relationships among attendees, assessing the terrain of experiential education in our region and creating space for discussion and collaboration. One way we are doing this is through “open space” format.
