TREESCAPES

Resources & Publications

Working with children and young people to develop
equitable, resilient treescapes for future generations.

Treescapes Resources

We aimed to integrate children and young people’s knowledge, experiences, and hopes with scientific knowledge in order to co-produce new approaches to creating and caring for resilient treescapes that benefit the environment and society.

The ‘Voices of the Future’ project aimed to work with diverse children and young people to co-develop more hopeful, equitable, resilient treescapes of the future.

The Language of Trees

This project strand worked with families with preschool children in South Yorkshire. By paying attention to what can happen between young children and trees, we aimed to show and celebrate the wide range of interesting ways in which children make meaning in treescapes.
