Lived experiences of being-in-the-forest as experiential sharing with the more-than-human world

“…Further research is needed to understand the mechanisms by which child nature experience carries over into adulthood (Rosa and Collado, 2019). Evidence from our work and authors from a growing number of countries, however, suggest that the embodied aspect of child nature experiences has a fundamental role to play (Kals et al, 1999;Wells and Lekies, 2006;Hsu, 2009;Chawla and Derr, 2012;Lekies and Beery, 2013;Beery and Jørgensen, 2016;Lekies et al, 2017;Asah et al, 2018;Beery and Lekies, 2018;Evans et al, 2018;Hosaka et al, 2018;Rosa et al, 2018;Häggström, 2019;Jensen and Olsen, 2019;Rosa and Collado, 2019). Abson et al (2016) noted that connectedness to nature and the subsequent care and concern for the larger ecosystem that it evokes might be a strong leverage point to transform a socio-ecological system toward a desirable, resilient, and sustainable future.…”

“…A educação ambiental tem um papel importante para construção de uma abordagem ecocêntrica (HÄGGSTRÖM, 2019;OLIVEIRA, 2017;JORGENSEN;MARTINY-BRUUN, 2019;PAYNE, 2017), na qual as experiências das crianças com o meio ambiente se tornam significativas e tem a possibilidade de transcender um mero manual de comportamentos. Para que esse processo seja posto em prática, é recomendável que consideremos a educação ambiental de maneira transversal entre as diversas atividades escolares em uma perspectiva de não fragmentação entre a ética~estética~política (PAYNE, 2017).…”
