January 26 marks World Nature Conservation Education Day. On the occasion of the World Day for Nature Protection, which has been celebrated since 1972, the world nature conservation organization WWF has published a manual "How to prepare for a stay in nature". This day is celebrated to highlight the importance of education that enables individuals to explore the state of nature, identify environmental problems and be actively involved in solving them. Nature protection education creates environmentally aware and active citizens who are committed to preserved and healthy nature. This is one of the reasons why WWF Adria started conducting education on the topic of nature protection in 2016, through the Academy of Nature and professional training with educators and teachers.
The importance of education on this important topic is also recognized at the global level, which is why UNESCO has determined that environmental education must be a basic component of curricula until 2025.
