Outdoor Learning (Theme Lead: Prof Heather Prince)
Outdoor learning involves facilitated experiences in the outdoors normally in formal and non-formal education. It includes outdoor and environmental education, adventure, recreation and physical activity for a range of outcomes such as health and well being, personal, social and intellectual development, and enhanced relationships with nature and place. Outdoor learning is important on a global scale to build positive values and a sustainable future, particularly for children and young people.
