nature & environment education

Welcome to the Nature and Environmental Education (NME) department.

 
 

What we do

We inform school children about the importance of nature and our environment and the protection, conservation and sustainable development of the island. We do so by providing programs in the field, in the classroom, providing educational materials for schools and make information accessible for the youth. We also have a goal to educate the people who live on or visit our beautiful Curacao.

We also produce media programs, nature documentaries and we provide workshops and courses. 

Need more information or have questions? please contact us at facebook carmabieducation or c.hameete@carmabi.org

School Education Programs


All schools on Curacao can join the educational programs for Elementary Education (Funderend Onderwijs) and Secondary Education (Voortgezet Onderwijs).

For Elementary Education we offer a Terrestrial Education Program (in our National Parks), a Marine Education Program (at the location Piscadera) and at the school location our microscopy-lessons 'Microworld'.

For Secondary Education we offer the program 'environmental challenges'.
