If you could design rules for a sustainable future what would they be? Biomimicry offers a set of principles based on how nature has practiced sustainability for 3.8 billion years.
Wild Awake is leading a U.K. team to deliver BioLearn, a pan-European project with partners in Hungary, Slovakia, Czech Republic, the Netherlands and the USA. The project will create new STEM learning resources which inspires secondary school students to use nature as guide to address human challenges.
We are working with schools in Devon to develop and pilot new learning resources. If you would like your school to become involved, please get in touch.
What is Biomimicry?
BioLearn is based on the principles of biominicry, the science and art of mimicking the best ideas from nature to solve human problems.
Modules
We are currently piloting our learning materials with schools. They will be published here when ready.
