Environmental Education Programs:
Like learning another language, the process of building environmental awareness to change behavior is most effectively begun when people are young. It was with this understanding, combined with the need to reach a broader audience, that we offer the AWI Water Shield Workshops. Our workshops are designed to engage school-aged participants in a hands-on watershed education experience. Children and adults that participate in our environmental education programs walk away with a deeper, more meaningful understanding for how complex, important, and threatened our watersheds are.
In addition to our watershed workshops, we work closely with our partners public education programs, including:
* Adirondack Watershed Steward training
* Aquatic plant identification and mapping
* Water quality monitoring and sampling
* Tabling and public presentations at meetings and events
Please contact us if your group/organization is interested in a presentation or workshop
