At Iwokrama, education is an important part of conservation.
The Iwokrama Forest serves as a living laboratory for science, research, training and collaboration, providing opportunities for researchers, students and professionals to learn from the forest and explore practical approaches to biodiversity conservation and sustainable forest management.
But knowledge should not remain within the forest. Through training programmes, school and community outreach, exhibitions, conferences, workshops and environmental awareness activities, we share our work and encourage others to better understand and care for our natural environment.
We also support the Wildlife Clubs of the North Rupununi, where young people engage in wildlife observation, biodiversity monitoring, STEM activities, environmental education, public speaking and other hands-on activities that build their knowledge, confidence and leadership skills.
This Education Month, we celebrate the power of learning, sharing and applying knowledge to create a more sustainable future for our forests, wildlife and communities.
Many thanks to our partners for making these initiatives possible.
