Discover how Aegle Sriphal’s community-led environmental education workshop empowers travel organisations and local communities with practical tools for eco-friendly journeys.
Why an Environmental Education Workshop Matters
Sustainable travel isn’t just a buzzword. It’s a necessity. Climate events, plastic pollution, and community impact have travellers asking tough questions. An environmental education workshop helps:
- Raise awareness of ecological footprints
- Offer hands-on tools for reducing waste
- Inspire local partnerships for eco-tourism
The good news? Workshops can shape mindsets and spark real change.
