CNR-ISMAR and the Biodiversity Gateway of the National Biodiversity Future Center (NBFC) are offering schools “Biodiversity in the Venice Lagoon,” an educational program dedicated to learning about biodiversity and lagoon ecosystems.
The initiative, funded by CNR-ISMAR, is carried out in collaboration with the Fondazione Musei Civici di Venezia – Giancarlo Ligabue Museum of Natural History and the Società Cooperativa Sestante di Venezia.
The program introduces students to the biodiversity of the Venice Lagoon and is aimed at elementary schools, middle schools, and the first two years of high school.
Activities
Classroom session on biodiversity and the lagoon environment
Educational workshop at the museum
Field trip to the lagoon aboard an eco-friendly boat, featuring observations, surveys, and sample collection, which are then analyzed at the Biodiversity Gateway
Registration
Participation is free while spaces last; transportation to and from Venice is the responsibility of the schools. A maximum of two classes per school, with one module per class. Priority will be given to schools with two classes participating on the same day and to those that have not participated in previous editions.
