Ecological Clubs for Children (ECCO)
Abstract
The Ecological Clubs for Children Organization (ECCO) is an umbrella-body founded to serve the needs of a network of Children's Clubs in the poorer rural sector of the Cape Province. These clubs have as their primary goal the enlargement of their members' experience through the vehicle of environmental education and activities designed to enhance a sense of social responsibility. The history of ECCO, the nature of the communities served, the need for the clubs and some of the problems encountered are discussed.
