Botanical gardens bring development issues to life in a lively and accessible way. The case studies suggest some imaginative ways of using plants as a stimulus, for instance a project on industry focuses on cotton and the wages cotton pickers earn; a study of Bangladesh looks at jute, and one school brings the sounds of the rainforest to life by playing musical instruments made from plant materials.
