Workshop Descriptions

Workshop 1 Exploring Biodiversity: during this engaging interactive workshop, we will discuss what biodiversity is, explore some weird and wonderful species, examine how Ireland’s biodiversity is doing and why biodiversity is important for all of us. The workshop includes a range of hands-on activities related to biodiversity.

 

Workshop 2 Problems and Solutions for Biodiversity: we are currently facing a global biodiversity crisis. During this workshop, we will explore the problems facing biodiversity, how climate change is affecting Ireland’s wildlife and look at what we can do to help conserve our vital biodiversity.

 

Workshop 3 Sustainable Gardening: in this workshop, we will look at how we can garden more sustainably and how we can create havens for wildlife in our gardens. We will explore home composting, soil health and wildlife-friendly plants and practices.

 

Workshop 4 Actions for Biodiversity: the interactive workshop explores how individuals, communities and organisations can take action and make changes in their lives to encourage, conserve and maintain biodiversity. We will look at innovative projects that are taking place around the world to help inspire participants to undertake initiatives and action projects in their community.
