The project was conducted in Kastamonu, Kastamonu Province, Turkey, with 40 students who reside in Kastamonu Social Service and Child Protection Agency. The participants in this study were investigated using face-to-face interviews to determine their changes of perceptions towards the environment and nature. According to the results of survey, the information provided during the education program was successful in raising awareness in the participants of the ongoing global issues of the environment and nature.
