Description

Let’s turn things Inside-Out

We believe that the well-being of children and the wild places we love are inextricably linked. And while research proves that regular time outdoors is essential for children’s healthy development, today’s kids are less connected to nature than ever before.

This is why we gather—as leaders, educators, practitioners and parents—to turn the trend of an indoor childhood back out to the benefits of nature.

Since 2007, we’ve been honored to convene the children and nature movement at grassroots gatherings, summits and conferences. Please join us this year for the 2020 Inside-Out Leadership Summit.
