Experiential learning
Connect directly with Explorers pushing the boundaries of science and discovery.
‘Travel’ to different parts of the globe through cutting-edge technology, interactive live sessions, and virtual field trips – without even leaving where you are. Learn about protecting rhinos firsthand from a conservationist in Africa. Explore the underwater world of manta rays with a biologist who swims among them. Through immersive learning experiences, young people develop the skills to think critically, cultivate empathy, and seek solutions that create impact on their communities and the planet.

All events are free, open to the public, and include an instructional guide to help learners get the most out of the experience.
