- By Laman Ismayilova

The Ecological Laboratory for Children, a joint project successful­ly carried out in 2015 2016 by IDEA Public Union and “Sevimli Bala”, held its first laboratory training session of the year.

Both the Arctic and the Antarctic of Earth are undergoing unpreceden­ted changes as a result of manmade climate change. Therefore, the first eco-lab session of the year focused on teaching children about these most sensitive ecosystems in the world.

The children were informed about the North and South poles, their geographic­al location, harsh environmen­t and native plants and animals.

Further, out little environmen­talists participat­ed in fun lab experiment­s, and especially enjoyed creating the Northern Lights effect and learning how auroras occur forming beautiful colors and patterns.

Apart from being a day full of fun and learning, the session has been a great contributi­on to children’s knowledge about the threat of glaciers melting in the Arctic and Antarctic, and human responsibi­lity for climate change.

The Ecological Laboratory for Children being carried for three years now, providing opportunit­ies and resources to extend the children’s knowledge and awareness of the environmen­t.

To participat­e in the “Ecological laboratory for children” project, oragnized at the Academy of Public Administra­tion, please call 497-63-16.
