Schools are an important space young people to learn about disaster risk, but too often teachers miss educational opportunities. Educators need to better understand how to use specific climate disaster examples in the classroom to teach about risk.

As the Ministry of Environment, Sustainable Development and Ecological Transition (MINEDDTE) prepares its first national adaptation plan (NAP) document, it launched a digital campaign calling on youth to get involved in adaptation.

Students around the world can explore a new virtual world to learn heat wave survival skills and cooling solutions through the Minecraft Education platform.

This document outlines examples of Save the Children’s experience with child-centred early warning systems, linked to the four pillars of the Early Warning for All initiative.

Over 26 million enrolled students in the Philippines are confronted with the multifaceted impacts of climate change, including the possibility of El Nino bringing intolerable heat, more powerful typhoons, and limited access to water for basic needs.

We are excited to announce an opportunity for you to contribute to the International Day for Disaster Risk Reduction 2024 campaign “Empowering the next generation for a disaster-free future” aimed at inspiring and engaging children and youth on DRR.

A recent paper published in Nature Climate Change reviewed studies linking climate change-related events or “climate stressors” to education outcomes.

The objective of this research paper is to review existing practices and literature regarding education curricula in disaster risk reduction (DRR) and climate change adaptation (CCA) within higher education (HE) institutions.

This collaborative endeavor aims to facilitate the exchange of challenges, lessons learned, and innovative practices in preparedness, response, and recovery across various stages of the COVID-19 pandemic and beyond.
