Empowering a sustainable and healthy future

BeNature supports educators and communities to design, deliver, and measure transformative learning experiences in nature, guided by a science based international benchmark

Why being Nature matters

Modern life has disconnected us from the natural world and from ourselves. This has led us to unsustainable, unfulfilling, and unhealthy lives. But what if we could learn to love nature enough to protect it, while having a fulfilling and healthy life? BeNature offers a clear, evidence-based, progressive pathway to embrace our nourishing ecological reality.

What is BeNature

BeNature is a community built on a science-based benchmark for developing meaningful and measurable sustainable relationships with nature. Grounded in over a decade of transdisciplinary research, collaborations with practitioners, and engagement with Indigenous Peoples, BeNature offers a structured pathway to support personal growth, wellbeing, and sustainability. In essence, BeNature is a practical, validated, and comprehensive tool to design and evaluate nature-centred learning for schools, community programs, conservation projects, and policy.

Why BeNature?

Grounded in research, guided by Nature
BeNature is built on over a decade of transdisciplinary, international research. It integrates scientific literature with the practical expertise of hundreds of international organisations working to connect people with nature and the wisdom of Indigenous Peoples. Unlike one-size-fits-all approaches, BeNature offers a structured, evidence-based pathway for growing sustainable relationships with nature with the local ecosystems.

Tools you can use, change you can measure
BeNature provides practical, ready-to-use resources that help educators and practitioners design, deliver, and evaluate meaningful nature-centred learning experiences. With built-in evaluation tools, you can track real impact on personal wellbeing, development, and sustainable behaviours.

A growing network for collective change
BeNature aims to empower a community of educators, practitioners, and changemakers committed to shaping a more just and sustainable future. When you engage with BeNature, you’re not just accessing a framework, but you’re joining a movement. Together, we are cultivating nature-centred leadership and supporting the next generation of ecological stewards.
