The province will integrate natural resources including nature reserves, nature and urban parks and science-popularization museums in the next three years for nature education activities targeting primary and secondary school students. At least one nature education base is expected to be built in every prefecture-level city of the province.
Since 2018, more than 13,000 nature education activities have been held in Guangdong Province.
