We will love onlywhat we understand. We willunderstand only what weare taught.” So goes the famous quote bySenegalese conservationist Baba Dioum.It’s more than a motto, it’s a commitmentfor the Cornell Lab’s education programs—using birds to help people betterunderstand nature and be active citizensand stewards of the earth.
