Education unlocks climate action

Teaching Resources

Our world is facing a climate emergency. There is hope but urgent action is needed now. 


Education unlocks climate action. It helps people to learn about the causes and impacts of climate change, encouraging a shift towards more sustainable lifestyles. And education builds the knowledge and skills necessary to adapt and innovate to save our planet.

Young people are leading the way in calling for action to ensure everyone is able to learn more about climate change and understand the solutions to this crisis.

Our cross-curricular activities for ages 7-16 help young people to learn, think and act in response to climate change.

  • Discuss ideas, thoughts and feelings about climate change.
  • Think critically about the importance of climate education.
  • Learn about some of the inspiring ways in which Theirworld’s Global Youth Ambassadors are using education to unlock climate action.
  • Work collaboratively to take action for the planet in your school and community.
