Biosphere Reserve Swabian Alb – Education for All – network platform

This project aims to achieve Regional Awareness by correlating the links within the integration of priorities, to reach a balance of everything. The means of reaching this goal is the concept approach set as a base-ground framework for a programme under the name of Education for All, with the outcome of an Education Network Platform at Regional Level, promoting development plans as a background for natural & cultural heritage. The concrete outcome would be the dissemination of applications/results resulted from the pilot projects (education programmes).
The target groups in the framework of this project are especially the inhabitants: children, adults and, of course, tourists. It is obvious that they have to understand their very important role in nature conservation and the sustainable development of Biosphere Reserve in this zone, which will help them in reverse to have a better life as a community.
Starting from the fact that the protected area can be used also for the purpose of recreation, the efforts should concentrate on having the recreation to bring up together both the people and the reserve, in order to create and shape another way of understanding and support of the population in the field of ecology education, widely spread throughout Europe.
The Kindergartens, the schools, the universities are institutions which will be involved the most, because the ecology education must start from the earliest age. If one waits to educate the public only when they enter the reserve, telling them what is allowed and what not, the battle is lost from the start.
Throughout this project, there will be strengthened efforts to make people understand that the protected areas are a vital necessity, which interrelates with the human existence itself.
