The MOENV has joined hands with the Ministry of Education to carry out the 4th “Environmental Map Contest.”. The contest hope to encourage teachers, parents, and children to go out to observe, explore, and record what they’ve seen down in their maps. The process of creating an original map is a precious environmental education experience. With this unique experience, children are able to care more about the land, interact with others, reflect on current events, and finally make a change in the world.
The 4th Environmental Map Contest had a great many participants and received 548 works across two grade groups (grade 2-4 and grade 5-6). The panel announced a total of 70 awards to the participants, including 3 winners、2 special awards and 5 honorable mentions in both grade groups and the Judges’ Awards are given to 20 groups in grade 2-4 and 30 groups in grade 5-6. We, as grown-ups, get know the environment we’re living in through children’s eyes and their paintings. In the future, we hope more children can step out into the world to paint their own environmental map, and to unveil the thriving energy of Taiwan.
In addition, "Environmental Protection Employee Experience Workshop" Continuously processed this year, targeting three staff courses of "Environmental Audit", "Poison Disaster Prevention and Rescue", "Environmental Education" courses, 6 experiential activities were organized, through scenario simulation, internship experience, staff experience interviews, etc., allowing practitioners to speak and personally lead, so that people could get a glimpse of the mysteries of the work site.
