Abstract

The Green Spaces, Learning Places (GSLP) environmental education initiative
runs schools-based and community-based sessions to create opportunities
for children and young people to engage with green outdoor environments
in London, England (including parks, heaths, and forests). Bespoke evaluation
resources were developed by researchers in collaboration with the GSLP
delivery teams. The evaluation was based on before and after survey
responses from 504 school-aged children (5–10years) and 54 young people
(13–19years), observation of 62 children, and interviews with 18 children
and 8 young people. The mixed methods findings suggest the programs
had a positive influence on increasing participants’ understanding, confidence, nature connection, wellbeing, and involvement in green outdoor environments.
