WWF believes that weaving education for sustainable development (ESD) as a thread from early learning stage to higher education institution will maximize its impact to achieve a sustainable future. Through collaboration works with different stakeholders in the past years, our education programmes provide many opportunities for city dwellers in Hong Kong to get close encounter with nature. More importantly, people are educated to have better understanding about the nature, to acquire positive values and to enhance their engagement for a sustainable future.

WWF began to manage Mai Po Nature Reserve since 1984 and established the Mai Po Marshes Wildlife Education Centre in 1986. Our freshwater and wetland education programmes have reached and benefited more than 40,000 students and general public every year. Mai Po has been used not only to teach school students, but also as a platform for educators to share experience in organizing ESD programmes. WWF understands that educators are important to reaching all students in Hong Kong and they play crucial role in promoting ESD. Since 2001, Multiplier training has been identified as one of the major work in WWF Hong Kong’s education strategy. Numerous seminars and workshops have been conducted to enhance teachers’ and nature educators’ capacity in organizing ESD programme as well as for experience interflow. Education resource development is another vital work to provide idea and information for educators’ reference. Presently, out capacity building work not only focusing in Hong Kong but also extending to South China regions.

WWF 相信曲折式可持续发展教育(ESD)作为一条线一样从早期教育到高校教育能够最大限度地影响未来的可持续发展。通过过去几年中与地方群众的合作，我们的教育计划已经为香港市民近距离接触自然创造了很多机会。更重要的是，通过教育使人们更加了解自然，有了积极的价值趋向，从而增强了他们对未来可持续发展的义务。

WWF从1984 年开始管理米浦自然保护区，并于1986成立了米浦湿地野生生物教育中心。我们的淡水和湿地教育计划每年教育并受益于40,000学生和一般公众。米浦不仅仅是用于对学校学生的教育，而且已经成为从事教育的工作者分享他们在开展曲折式可持续发展教育(ESD)项目中的经验的一个平台。WWF认识到，教育者对接近香港所有学生非常重要，他们对促进曲折式可持续发展教育(ESD)起关键作用。自从2001年，乘数式培训已经被确定为香港WWF教育战略的最主要工作之一。我们开展了大量的研讨会和讲习班活动以提高教师和自然教育者组织曲折式可持续发展教育(ESD)项目的能力和经验交流。教育资源的发展是另一项为教育者的参考资料提供思路和信息的重要工作。目前，我们的能力建设工作不仅仅关注香港，也在向华南地区拓展。
