International Day of Education 2025

Friday 24th January 2025 was International Day of Education and we celebrated the power of Climate Change Education to transform lives and remove barriers to learning!

Through the Eco-Schools Seven Steps methodology, schools in 101 countries are addressing immediate climate challenges while improving education quality through project-based and place-based learning.

In regions facing severe climate impacts - droughts, floods, and extreme weather - Eco-Schools enables adaptation through hands-on learning and community engagement, fostering practical solutions, healthier environments, and greater access to education.

By fostering resilience and enhancing education quality, Eco-Schools is breaking barriers to learning. Together with the UN’s Greening Education Partnership, we aim to green 50% of schools worldwide by 2030.

Our goal? To expand into regions with the highest children’s Climate Risk Index (CCRI) and biodiversity hotspots, making green education accessible to all.

We believe in the power of education to create lasting change. Join us in making this vision a reality! 💚
