Teachers lab - Think, Learn, Act Climate

The teaching profession is on the frontline in addressing the challenges of climate change. As today’s children will very likely live the whole of their lives with climate change, it makes sense that they should be prepared for this future. UN CC:Learn has a mission to build climate change literacy at a global level and is looking for ways to empower teachers and students to better understand the issues and become part of the solution.

In particular, UN CC:Learn offers a series of free e-learning resources on climate change and green economy. These are based on official UN content and available in different languages. Course results in an official UN CC:Learn certificate for those who pass. By completing any one of these courses, your journey has begun in becoming a champion for climate change in your family, your school and your community.

Information about other relevant UN CC:Learn initiatives, such as in-country support for the integration of climate change into the formal education system as well as youth engagement will be also presented.
