People's relationship to nature is the greatest issue facing the world at the turn of the millennium, and all over the world young people have shown enormous enthusiasm for environmental action. Many countries are radically reassessing both the role of citizens in managing their environment and the rights and responsibilities of children to be involved in shaping their own and their communities' futures.

This book, by one of the world's leading authorities on environmental education, is written in the conviction that children can play a valuable and lasting role in sustainable development, if their participation is taken seriously and planned with thought for their developing capabilities and unique strengths. Through direct participation, children can develop a genuine appreciation of democracy and a sense of their own competence and responsibility. The planning, design, monitoring and management of the physical environment is an ideal domain for their participation, in part because their commitment to it is so strong.

The book is for planners, educationalists and environmentalists, introducing the theory and the practice of children's participation, and its importance for developing democracy and sustainable communities. It emphasises genuine participation, where children are themselves involved in defining problems and acting as reflective, critical participants in issues affecting their communities. The 'environment' is interpreted broadly to include, for example, the planning of housing areas and the management of playgrounds. Detailed case studies are provided from urban and rural, poor and middle class communities from both the North and South. For teachers, group facilitators and community leaders, it presents organising principles, successful models, practical techniques and resources for involving young people in environmental projects.

PRACTICAL ADVICE FOR INVOLVING CHILDREN IN THE ENVIRONMENT

Reviewed in the United States on July 31, 2000

Firstly, I would like to say, contrary to what is written elsewhere on this page, that this book is not meant to be read by children between the ages of 9 and 12. It is, in fact, recommended for environmental NGOs, policy makers, teachers, youth workers and community leaders who work with children.
This book was commissioned by UNICEF to further growing concerns of global importance: the environment, sustainable development and children's rights. All over world, children are becoming enthusiastically involved in environmental issues. While the child is defined as any person under 18 years of age, the focus of this book is on childhood and early adolescence to about 14 years, rather than upon the older teenage years.
Roger Hart is convinced that all children can play a central and lasting role in sustainable development if their genuine participation is taken seriously and if communities recognize their developing competencies and unique strengths. Using detailed case studies from urban and rural, poor and middle-class communities in both the developed and developing worlds, and including photos, figures, tables and boxes, this guide introduces the organising principles, successful models, practical techniques and resources for involving children in environmental projects, with useful further reading and contact addresses.
Roger Hart is Director of the Children's Environments Research Group at the City University of New York and Editor of Children's Environments.
