Field Studies Council www.field-studies-council.org learning@lake-district.gov.uk The FSC is an independent educational charity formed in 1943 to help people discover, explore, understand and be inspired by the natural environment … ‘Inspiring environmental understanding through first hand experience ’. The FSC has become internationally respected for its national network of 17 educational centres, international outreach training projects, research programmes, information and publication services and wide range of professional training and leisure courses. FSC goes beyond conventional thinking to challenge the underlying assumption about how education can lead to a change in the way young people think about development issues. We ask what really brings about change and how can our learning achieve this? Our inspiration is always to deliver capacity to raise awareness.
