Rapidly declining bird populations in Eilat, Israel are caused by climate change and human infringement on birds' habitats. The Eilat Bird Sanctuary brings awareness to this issue by hosting community outreach and educational programs. To further promote the sanctuary’s mission, we created educational material for children, ages 6-12, designed to evoke emotions and engage different learning modalities. The educational content was presented in an interactive QR code scavenger hunt that teaches visitors of the sanctuary about birds and nature conservation.
