The REEB is the Environmental Education Network in Brittany, which has been working for 25 years to defend and develop environmental education in Brittany.
A strong need for mutualisation between actors is at the origin of the creation of the REEB in 1992. The network now brings together structures (associations, communities, schools, auto-entrepreneurs …) and individuals (animators, teachers , environmental professionals, parents …) all invested in nature education and the environment.
It aims at:
-
innovating and supporting environmental education
-
networking actors, pooling knowledge, experiences and know-how in environmental education
-
encouraging participation in the development of environmental education
-
supporting environmental education structures and community life
-
communicating, promoting and transmitting environmental education information
