Using IT to make wildlife trails more interesting and accessible - Augmented Wildlife Experiences (AWE) trails to support nature connection - BNSS

Event date: 14th January 2025 at: 7.30pm (zoom only)

Speakers: Amanda Korstjens and Anastasia Vayona

Amanda Korstjens and Anastasia Vayona from Bournemouth University will describe using online materials to especially help young people to see the beauty of their local environment and immerse them more in nature than they may during a standard walk. In addition, these trails could be set up specifically for people who are unable to walk such trails themselves. Also, we will discuss the trials and errors of setting up our first trail at Holton Lee, that is on private land with restricted access, whereas the new trails will be on public land hence different problems.
