How can you create authentic outdoor learning experiences? In a beautiful pine forest in South western Finland we take a walk with Dr Simon Beames, Senior Lecturer in Outdoor Learning at Edinburgh University, Simon was in Finland to give a keynote talk “Educating Generation Z” at www.Ulos2017.fi, Finland’s largest outdoor learning conference, a part of Suomi/Finland 100 year celebrations.
Why do we create outdoor programs and how does the environment affect the practice we do? We wander along sandy paths and compare the outdoor learning and education traditions in Canada, Scotland and Finland.
Simon has created “Outdoor Journeys” and is the author of Adventurous Learning: A Pedagogy for a Changing World.

Join adventurer Tim Cope on his journey from studying law in Australia to living a life of exploration. Tim has travelled the world by bike, rowing boat, on foot and by horse. A significant influence was his wilderness guide studies in Finland. Tim tells how Finnish “Erä” traditions have influenced his approach to travelling the world.
How can one engage in unfamiliar landscapes? How does nature influence the psychology of the people who live off the land? Tim shares his experiences of exploring northern boreal forests and slowly travelling through the vast expanse of steppe and desert between Mongolia and Hungary.
