Environmental Education

"On land and in the sea, our fore-fathers lived and survived in this environment. They were able to do so because they recognised the need to conserve it, to take from it only what they needed to live, and to preserve it for succeeding generations.” - Sheikh Zayed Bin Sultan Al Nahyan. This workshop aims to bring the wealth of resource that is the UAE environment into the classroom in all disciplines.
