[Worldbank Report] Choosing Our Future: Education for Climate Action
How can we leverage the power of education to drive climate action while making our education systems more resilient?
Our latest report delves into this essential question, revealing some eye-opening insights:
➡️ Education is a key driver of change: Each additional year of schooling boosts climate awareness by 9%.
➡️ But climate change disrupts learning: Rising temperatures are impacting student performance, and 75% of major climate events over the past two decades have led to school closures.
➡️ Preparing for the future requires new skills: Transitioning to a sustainable future calls for reskilling and upskilling across most existing jobs.
Our findings show that by enhancing foundational skills, incorporating hands-on climate education, and fostering green skills across sectors, we can accelerate the shift to low-carbon economies.
