Eden has spent ten years growing the largest rainforest in the UK – now we’re ready to build an extraordinary educational resource – a journey of discovery high in the treetops revealing secrets from forests - our relationship with them and choices we can make to make a difference.

Situation
Education is key to our planet's future. If our children do not learn about the importance of our environment then how can we expect them to care for it and protect it when they are older? The worlds tropical rainforests are home to a diverse community of plants, animals and people. They clean the air, make rain and regulate our climate. Deforestation is shrinking the remaining forests at an alarming rate. Eden is raising awareness of the importance of the worlds rainforests.
Solution
The Rainforest Experience will provide an innovative educational tool bringing the rainforest to a large audience who would never get the chance to visit it. Experiential learning will break down the barriers to engagement - helping meet the needs of schools, colleges and universities and the general public. We really want to make a difference and hope that people will leave knowing they can make positive changes to the way they live that will help conserve rainforests around the world.
