Canadian Outdoor Learning Resource Hub

Over the past several years, outdoor learning has gained momentum and support as an important pedagogical approach within our school systems. Evidence-based research is showing the positive impacts that can happen when the learning environment includes time spent outside for students. Learning outside has the opportunity to address Indigenous perspectives and ways of knowing, health and wellbeing, and crucial environmental issues like climate change.

This resource is a collection of educators and organizations committed to this work of extending learning beyond four walls. By no means is it exhaustive – this is a living document that will grow and evolve, but it’s a starting point to share some of the great work that is being done across Canada. We encourage sharing this resource with other educators, administrators and anyone who has a vested interest in the future of younger generations.
