NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC EDUCATION PROGRAMS National Geographic's Education division amplifies and extends the work of Explorers into classrooms, communities, and with young people to illuminate and protect the wonder of our world. We work to build an Explorer mindset - the attitudes, skills, and knowledge that NGS Explorers use to find solutions to the world's most challenging problems - by designing learning resources and other solutions, live interactions with Explorers, and Explorer-focused experiences that support Explorers' impact. We build strategic and impact partnerships, GIS modules, education-focused grants, and support research, knowledge creation, and skill development to diverse audiences. Continued on Sch.
