2019 Annual Report 17

The Commission developed a new education plan in 2019 to help connect constituents to our natural
and cultural legacy and outdoor recreation opportunities. Developed through an analysis of our current
education initiatives and a broad look towards the future, this plan has six goals: natural resource
education, cultural and historical education, outdoor and recreation education, cohesive team development,
maintaining and growing strong partnerships, and developing ideas to ensure sustainable funding. A new
Fish and Wildlife Education Division was created to assist with implementation of the plan and to educate
Nebraskans about our state's natural resources. This division will work to advance and expand ecological
education development of Nebraska-specific resources.
Children participate in one of the many outdoor learning activities sponsored by the Commission.
