Environmental Monitoring and Action Project

(clik title to link to EMAP site)

EMAP provides an overview of environmental monitoring activities throughout New Zealand and endeavours to bring schools, local authorities, research institutions and others together to allow students to carry out monitoring of their local region in an environmental education context.

This programme combines the delivery of GLOBE and the National Waterways Project and has a specific 'mountains to the sea' focus.  EMAP enables the exploration of either the coastal or freshwater environment and there is much to stimulate students and give teachers examples of activities for their teaching/learning programmes.

With NWP and GLOBE complementing each other, EMAP reminds students that they can make a difference to the world we live in and encourages environmentally sustainable practice.
