During this 10-day professional development program, teachers will be immersed in the Peruvian Amazon, learning about this key global ecosystem while building their ability to engage students in scientific research, cross-cultural connections, and community-based conservation initiatives.  Skilled Peruvian guides lead natural history exploration – in small boats, along trails, and on one of the world’s most extensive canopy walkways. Professional scientists engage educators in field research and citizen science. Indigenous community members share their conservation and sustainable development projects and their goal of long-term sustainability of the rainforest resources on which their livelihoods depend.  Learn more at www.morphoinstitue.org/educator-academy
