Guildford: Nature workshop for educators and school leaders
Zero Carbon Guildford, 1 Riverside Business Park, Walnut Tree Close, Surrey, GB# BeNature: Ecocentric Leadership in Schools – A Hands-On Workshop
Join fellow educators, school leaders, and outdoor learning specialists for an inspiring and practical two-hour workshop exploring how schools can lead the way in fostering sustainable, nature-literate communities.
Grounded in the BeNature framework (www.benature.info) – a science-based model for growing strong human–nature relationships developed by Dr Matteo Giusti at the University of Surrey, this unique workshop will help you make sense of the Department for Education’s Sustainability and Climate Change Strategy into meaningful action in your school.
Expect meaningful conversation, fresh ideas, and connections that last well beyond the event. Refreshments will be provided, and every participant will receive a printed copy of the BeNature handbook and a certificate of attendance from UNITAR.

## About Our Partner, ProsperBD
ProsperBD works with environmental, sustainability, and B Corp companies, supporting them with all aspects of their business development setup to help increase sales pipelines and win new clients. Their support is particularly valuable when companies lack the time to carry out these activities themselves, don’t have the necessary skillset, or simply don’t have the inclination to focus on sales.
