About The Young Naturalist

The Young Naturalist is a social enterprise, co-founded by Dr Fiona Benyon and Dr Aniuzka Kazandjian, who are combining their passion for Nature and education with their scientific training in botany, mycology, entomology and biodiversity. Our Mission is to “bring biodiversity to life and connect children with Nature” through hands-on, science-based, Nature discovery programs and experiences. Our Vision is to "nurture the future custodians of our Natural World" by providing the scientific skills, knowledge and language for children to investigate, understand and connect with Nature. We are committed to this endeavour because, as Sir David Attenborough has astutely observed “Every child born into this world has the innate pleasure, delight, interest and curiosity in the natural world, (but) none will care about what they haven’t experienced” Our social enterprise values are to inspire respect for Nature, provide scientific foundations for children, be role models for girls in science, enhance children’s well-being and support women in science by creating child-friendly employment opportunities. Our programs enhance children’s well-being by stimulating their curiosity in the Natural World, nurturing their sense of wonder, and providing a sense of belonging in our world. Our programs are aligned with the 'Living World' curriculum and provide scientific investigation experiences for students. Invite The Young Naturalist to your school or community organisation to enrich the lives of your students by stimulating their curiosity in the Natural World, nurturing their sense of wonder, and providing a sense of belonging in our world.
