NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC EDUCATION PROGRAMS For nearly 40 years, National Geographic's Education division has amplified the work of Explorers into classrooms and communities to inspire tangible, lasting changes worldwide. We cultivate the creativity and resilience of learners, leaders, and educators by designing learning solutions, resources and GIS modules as well as live interactions with Explorers and experiences that support local impact. At the heart of this mission we foster an Explorer Mindset - the curiosity, skills, and knowledge that fuel solutions to challenges and ignite passion for protecting our planet. Through our efforts to build strategic, impactful partnerships, fund education-focused grants, and support research, knowledge creation, and skill development, we are expanding the efforts of Explorers using community-based strategies to inspire tangible, lasting changes worldwide.
