For the first time in Latin America, Brazil hosts the "International Conference - Natural
Playspaces for Children", an event that aims to stimulate outdoor learning and play, encouraging the
movement for formal and non-formal educational environments even more connected with
nature.
The conference also aims to convene experts from different fields of knowledge -
education, architecture, health, and arts - who work in both public and private
institutions and believe that nature contributes to fostering physical and mental
health as well as well-being for all.
The meeting will bring Brazilian experiences and dialogue with proposals developed
in other countries in a partnership between the International School Grounds Alliance
(ISGA), the Children and Nature program, an initiative from Alana Institute, and the
Social Service of Commerce (Sesc).
