Environmental conservation and education for sustainability
Oikos mainly operates in Lombardy and Piedmont in close cooperation with institutions, above all parks and Provinces, in order to promote shared strategies of environmental conservation applicable to different territorial contexts.
In particular, we deal with:
Operations of environmental conservation
Wildlife monitoring
Protection of local species
Restoration of blighted areas
Wildlife corridors
Sustainable agriculture and agro-biodiversity
We couple technical operations with educational paths on sustainability and active citizenship, because a complex and interdependent society requires education to play a pivotal role in shaping the consciousness, skills and values necessary to promote a more sustainable, equal and inclusive future.
We promote educational and awareness raising activities in formal and informal contexts – schools, families, work places, communities – through workshops and learning materials that offer young people in particular the tools to become actors of change.
We deliver public conferences and seminars in cooperation with universities and research institutes in order to encourage debate and exchange, involving different local actors in the culture of sustainability.
