The best way to learn is in nature. PPNEA team during the last week implemented the Environmental education programme in several schools in the districts of Gjirokastra and Tepelena, areas in which the Egyptian vulture is present.
The pupils spent a full lesson, where they learned about the Egyptian vulture, its importance, nesting, migration, threats affecting the species, measures that can be taken to protect it, etc. Learning by playing is the best way to understand and receive faster this information.Part of the educational package adapted by PPNEA, were also games with focus on the Egyptian vulture, such as the board game “Odyssey of Egyptian vulture” and Floor game.
Educational sessions are important because the knowledge that children receive, gives them the opportunity to show interest and care for this endangered species, but also for nature in general.
PPNEA is grateful to the principals and teachers of each school, for their cooperation and readiness in this important activity for the pupils.
