Into the Forest: CHICS Scholars Visit the Korup Nature Trail
Mosaki Motoase | April 30, 2026
For many children growing up near Korup National Park, the forest is simply where their parents go to hunt. This year, six CHICS scholars got the chance to see it differently.
Guided by experienced forest rangers, the students walked the Nature Trail in the south of Korup National Park
But the excursion was about was about letting the students feel the forest, its scale, its silence, its beauty, independent of any economic value.
When young people experience the forest this way, something shifts. They begin to see it not just as a resource, but as something worth protecting.
That's the foundation every conservation programme needs.
