Reconnection and Outreach of Adults: Teaching
Environmental Discovery
How did it start?
BirdLife Malta offers innovative environmental education programs for children and teenagers, inspiring a love for nature among the younger generation. Over time, the enthusiasm of the children has sparked interest in adults and senior citizens, who often yearn for similar experiences but are caught in routines or isolated environments.
Our objectives
The project’s core objectives include promoting lifelong learning by engaging senior citizens through activities like birdwatching and interactive podcasts that blend personal narratives with expert insights. Participants also learn digital skills by inputting bird sightings into databases and using technology to explore environmental conservation.

Η φύση ως γέφυρα μεταξύ των γενεών (EL)
Ο Ανδρέας και η Ευγενία συνομιλούν για τη διαγενεακή συνύπαρξη στη φύση, την κοινή αλλά και δημιουργική παρουσία μικρών και μεγάλων σε ένα ελεύθερο, μη δομημένο περιβάλλον. Πώς μπορούμε να αλληλεπιδράσουμε ως μέλη μίας οικογένειας στη φύση; Ποιο είναι το όφελος από αυτήν τη συνύπαρξη σε σχέση με το δομημένο περιβάλλον; Με ποιον τρόπο ένας δάσκαλος εμπνέεται από τα στοιχεία της φύσης; Πώς μπορεί ένας άνθρωπος μεγαλύτερης ηλικίας να δει τη φύση μέσα από τα μάτια των παιδιών; Πώς λειτουργεί η φύση ως πρότυπο στη ζωή όλων μας; Ο Ανδρέας, ως εκπαιδευτικός αλλά και ως γονιός, μοιράζεται μαζί μας τις σκέψεις του και την εμπειρία του από την κοινή δράση στη φύση Andreas and Eugenia talk about intergenerational coexistence in nature, the common but also creative presence of young and old in a free, unstructured environment. How can we interact as members of a family in nature? What is the benefit of this coexistence in relation to the structured environment? How can a teachers be inspired by the elements of nature? How can an older person see nature through the eyes of children? How does nature function as a role model in the lives of all of us? Andreas, as an educator and as a parent, shares with us his thoughts and his experience of joint action in nature.
