Linking young people with our biosphere
Biosphere Exploreres run in partnership with the Heritage Lottery funded Galloway Glens Landscape Partnership. The aim of increasing the appreciation and understanding of the local natural environment and human interactions with it, through a series of workshops for school children, young people and local residents within the Biosphere.
This two year project seeks to reconnect those living throughout the Ken-Dee catchment (Carsphairn to Kirkcudbright) with their environment and celebrate the opportunities and benefits the natural environment can provide to those living and working in the area.
The Project Officer will be the main Project contact and organiser working with a small team of staff at CCC in conjunction with the Galloway Glens project to deliver Biosphere Explorers. The work involves developing and delivering indoor and outdoor workshops with external partners for upper primary, lower secondary, school leavers and adults.
