What plans does the Welsh Government have to increase the involvement of schools in the national peatlands action programme to promote the idea of creating engaged scientific citizens?
Answer
Answered by Minister for Education and the Welsh Language
The National Peatland Action Programme (NPAP) website provides peatland related educational materials for download.
Annex B of the National Peatland Action Programme sets out the national public engagement actions and outcomes expected over the next 3 years under cross-cutting theme #3.
NRW are in the process of recruiting a NPAP Communications & Engagement Officer.
The NPAP has produced a number of video resources explaining why peatlands are important and why we are restoring them. These are available via the NPAP YouTube account: National Peatland Action Programme - YouTube
