About

Monica Franco and Magda Morbey Ferro are the founders of Movimento Bloom , a children and family conservation non-profit whose mission is to re-connect children and families with Nature through a powerful approach to Nature education: through the magic of nature.
They are the country coordinators for Sharing Nature Worldwide in Portugal.

Movimento Bloom combines Sharing Nature's learning methodology Flow Learning with myths, legends, games, folklore and magical traditions. We provide workshops and fun and engaging nature-sharing activities to give children joyful and profound experiences of the Natural world; a magic potion that opens the eyes of children to the wonders of wildlife and inspire the next generation to care for nature.
 

News 

The Department of Environment and equipment of the Oeiras Town Hall has partnered with Movimento Bloom to provide 10 city public schools with the program “4 Seasons” – environmental awareness education. It will reach 250 children from KS2 from April until June 2016.

History 

As children we used to play outdoors every single day after school until sunset. We had lots of adventures, plenty of imagination and played freely and unsupervised. Wanting to continue our love of play into our adulthood, we had the idea of starting an amateur puppet theater company. We dressed as fairies and shared enchanting nature stories about the importance of protecting nature. 

After one of our performances, a child came up to us and whispered : “Take me on an adventure! Show me the magic of nature!” It was then that we realized, as fairies, we should be outside the theater room and our message could have a greater impact for protecting nature.. We knew that we had a role in children’s nature awareness: through the Magic of Nature and all her beings. That’s how Movimento Bloom was born In 2010.

Since our first meeting with Joseph Cornell in 2011 we've been determined to start and spread the Sharing Nature program in our country.
