To this end, on the one hand, it trains teachers, develops materials for EE, conducts programmes at school level using various approaches, collaborates with other agencies for EE/ESD initiatives, reviews and analyzes curriculum for integration of concepts etc. On the other hand, it endeavours to bring a hands-on, field-based, dimension to school education through opportunities offered by governmental and non-governmental initiatives such as the eco-clubs, camping, education in and around Protected Areas, etc.
