Designing a Digital Platform to Promote Experiences of Nature (EoN) in Early Childhood: A Methodological Model Derived from Action Research
Conception d'une plateforme numérique visant à promouvoir les expériences de la nature (EdN) dans la petite enfance : un modèle méthodologique issu de la recherche-action
Résumé
This paper presents the development of a participatory digital platform designed to promote nature-based experiences for children aged 0 to 3 years. The project responds to the growing reduction of young children's opportunities to engage with nature in their daily lives, despite the critical role such experiences play in early development. Grounded in an action research framework, this initiative integrates both operational and scientific objectives. The platform was co-created through interdisciplinary collaboration and informed by a needs assessment involving early childhood professionals and caregivers. This article details the methodological model, participatory design process, and broader implications for supporting caregivers, fostering nature engagement from infancy, and contributing to interdisciplinary research in conservation and early childhood education.
