Outdoor Education - Around The World

Around The World

Outdoor education occurs, in one form or another, in most if not all countries of the world. However, it can be implemented very differently, depending on the cultural context. Some countries, for example, view outdoor education as synonymous with environmental education, whilst other countries treat outdoor education and environmental education as distinct. Modern forms of outdoor education are most prevalent in UK, USA, Australia, New Zealand, Europe and to some extent Asia and Africa.

Famous quotes containing the words the world and/or world:

    “Softly sweet in Lydian measures
    Soon he soothed his soul to pleasures.
    ‘War’, he sung, ‘is toil and trouble;
    Honour but an empty bubble.
    Never ending, still beginning,
    Fighting still, and still destroying;
    If the world be worth thy winning,
    Think, O think it worth enjoying.
    Lovely Thais sits beside thee,
    Take the good the Gods provide thee.’”
    —John Dryden (1631–1700)

    “Home? I have no home. Hunted, despised, living like an animal. The jungle is my home. But I will show the world that I can be its master. I will perfect my own race of people, a race of atomic supermen, which will conquer the world.”
    —Edward D. Wood, Jr. (1922–1978)
