Something new is taking root in Scotland π±
Over the past six months, the Discover Nature Award (DNA) has been taking shape. Co-designed by young adults, it is a two-day journey for 18 to 28 year olds to reconnect with the Scottish landscape and find their place in tackling the climate crisis ππͺ
From exploring species reintroductions to championing youth-led rewilding, these newly-funded projects are showing us what bold action for nature truly looks like.
