The “Illuminating the darkness” project teaches children and young people in nature park schools about the night, nocturnal animals and light pollution in a fun way. E.C.O. supports the Austrian nature parks significantly in the conception and implementation of the material. E.C.O.'s contribution includes the technical elaboration of the topics, the development of age-appropriate experiments, games and tasks as well as the educational preparation for different age groups. The aim is to raise awareness of the importance of natural darkness and to contribute to the protection of nocturnal species and their habitat.
