Let’s Celebrate the Birds of Ecuador: Manual of Environmental Education (Spanish)
This educators’ manual was co-authored in collaboration with 45 Ecuadorian formal and informal environmental educators and staff from the Cornell Lab of Ornithology. The manual’s activities are designed to emphasize the importance of community engagement, making the audience feel connected and involved. The activities aim to motivate and inspire their communities to learn more about birds, join participatory science and conservation projects, express their creativity and value their culture, and, above all, feel proud of their birds, culture, and territory. The hope is that this sense of connection and involvement will enable them to take concrete actions in their communities for their well-being and the protection of birds and their habitats.
