Educating children about the environment is a priority

Raise awareness, educate, and take action for the environment.

Tomorrow's generations are the children of today. It is important that they are aware of the environmental threats of the years to come so they may adapt their behaviour towards sustainable living.

Designed for children aged between 7 and 16, the Surfrider educational program was started in 1995. Its objective is based upon raising awareness of the importance of protecting the coastlines and of becoming an 'eco-citizen'.

Our Education department creates teaching tools for teachers, parents, and all working with children who wish to provide them with the keys for sustainable development and coastal preservation.

Surfrider was awarded with an official approval as an Institute of Education by the Minister of Youth Sport.
