About the Educators Network

Biosphere reserves are expected to fulfill three basic functions: contribute to the conservation of biodiversity; foster sustainable development; and provide support for education, research and monitoring within the area. Our goal is to build the strength of the Georgian Bay Biosphere Reserve community by creating a connection to the biosphere reserve in local education.

The biosphere reserve is intended to serve as a model of sustainability. We see the development of Education in the Biosphere as the most effective way of informing the local community in order to achieve a sustainable way of life.
