The Natural Leaders Network empowers a worldwide youth movement to strengthen the bond between children and nature.

A movement is here. It has arrived and it needs leaders. A legacy lies ready to be written and the ink for that legacy is within the energy of a young diverse generation.

Announcing the 2013 Legacy Camp!

The Natural Leaders are seeking dynamic and energized young leaders to take part in the second Legacy Camp. We are now accepting applications and any interested leaders, ages 18-29, should apply soon! Applications will be accepted until June 28^th, 2013.

Comment by Juliet Robertson on August 31, 2012 at 2:06pm: Hello Everyone

I've been asked to locate and source advice and guidance about the humane killing and eating of animals as part of an outdoor session with children and young people.

I have been told by a friend that he thought this may be more common in the US. I'm particularly interested in know about small animals such as rabbits, chickens and fish.

Many thanks in advance

Juliet

Comment by Eric Dolaway on August 1, 2011 at 6:47am: Ever consider creating a listserv to email out events like the outdoor nation? or is there a listserv that I'm just not on that would have told me about it? I would have loved to have gone.
