Picker Pals

Picker Pals is a powerful behavioural change programme for those between 6-9 years old which focuses on creating a better environment for our shared future. This programme aims at creating a new mindset among kids, teachers, parents and communities. Picker Pals teaches us how to give back to our environment and how to better understand the power of our actions. 

Picker Pals cultivates resilience and self-reliance in young participants through 6 key pillars:

1. Multimodal Learning 

2. Real World, Action-based Learning 

3. Boosting Engagement through Responsibility 

4. Fun - The Ultimate Motivator! 

5. Embedding Behaviour through Personalised Storytelling 

6. Community and the Positive Feedback Loop

Learning Outcomes

Picker Pals develops confidence in young participants while engaging families and communities in collective action to make the world better.

Community Cohesion

By engaging children and families in collaborative litter-picking which is observed and admired in the community, we foster a shared sense of responsibility and build community connections.

Wellbeing

A healthy, engaging alternative to screen time, Picker Pals boosts teamwork and communication skills while reducing stress, promoting physical activity and providing shared family outdoor moments.

Preparing for Change

Through targeted environmental education and real world interventions, Picker Pals is preparing a generation for the transition to a climate-resilient, sustainable economy.
