Dec 2020. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>During both sessions the&nbsp;participants learned about the role and responsibilities of a nature guide, what tools to use, how to spot and present a species, and most importantly how to advocate the protection of forests via nature guiding. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This workshop was supported by the GEF Small Grant Program.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery
