DSWF Education Programme

In 2026–27, twenty pathfinders will access and help us develop a more sustained environmental education programme. Schools, colleges and informal providers will help us navigate the complex process of helping young people to become advocates for wildlife and conservation.

Each participating education provider will receive up to three days of DSWF support each year. They will also have access to our resident wildlife artist, webinars with our global partners, and bespoke resources from the programme throughout the year.
