Manchester International Skogsmulle Symposium 2025 By Shirley and Mike Johnson
Rationale: Previous symposia have successfully taken place in beautiful areas where children have access to forests. If we are to ensure that all children have the opportunity to not only learn in, through and about nature but also to meet Skogsmulle and his friends, it is important that the concept is expanded to all children. Although many of our cities do not have forests, they are not devoid of nature. Manchester in particular, has a large number of public parks and many smaller green spaces. We believe that, in addition to the ecosystems recognised by Skogsmulle and his friends, as the vast majority of our children live in urban areas, it is now time to introduce the pedagogy around Skogsmulle.
