*How this program makes a difference* Over the last four years this project has helped to increase the quantity and quality of environmental education taught in schools surrounding forested areas. Students participate in visits to forest education centers and gain a personal connection with the forest habitat. Many students have chosen to undertake conservation projects to help the environment, animals and the human communities surrounding them. These projects have included activities such as tree planting, composting, awareness campaigns, and water and sanitation projects.
