The Eco-Journey is an overseas immersive learning experience where participants observe real-world conservation and its links to the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Through hands-on experiences and reflections, participants deepen their understanding of environmental education, drawing insights from Singapore’s experience. By exploring the connections between nature, communities, livelihoods, and culture, the journey fosters a stronger appreciation of and commitment to nature, while enriching personal or professional journeys.
