Children's perception of the environment: a teacher's toolkit for investigating coastal and marine ecosystems in Asia

The goal of the Children’s Perception of the Environment Toolkit is to help children living in coastal and island environments in Asia to become responsible stewards of the environment through a better understanding of coastal and marine ecosystems. The Toolkit also seeks to improve understanding of how coastal and marine ecosystems can be managed in order to create a more sustainable human economy. The Toolkit supports the efforts of teachers to do this through the provision of up-to-date information on important coastal and marine ecosystems as well as by suggesting practical hands-on activities that allow students to explore and understand their local ecosystems and the issues affecting them. The teachers are provided with a framework for teaching local history and ecology in a way that complements science and social studies in line with the national school syllabus.
