Humber Arboretum day camps are based out of the Centre for Urban Ecology, but campers spend most of their time outdoors where they make their own discoveries in the forest, river, meadows, wetlands, gardens, and ponds of the Humber Arboretum.

This week we’ll explore those connections and discover why it is essential to protect nature not only for ourselves but also for the diversity of life that depends on it for survival.

She will engage in dialogue with the Humber community that encourages a thoughtful discussion on structures, supports and practices needed to fully integrate the UDL framework into practice.
