The Forest of Experiments
An activity that translates many scientific research findings and expert conclusions into language accessible to the public. Our educational work is conducted by researchers from various fields following the principles and methods of forest pedagogy. Forest pedagogy is an approach to environmental education connected with the forest and our relationship with it. We offer training for educators, the interested public, and youth. We participate in the development of environmental education in Slovenia and are active internationally.
