Climate change and girls’ education – school resource pack
This resource explores how climate-related disasters often amplify existing gender inequalities. It shows how girls’ education can benefit all of society in adapting and mitigating for climate change whilst enabling a fairer and more sustainable society.
According to the Malala Fund, by 2025, climate change will be a contributing factor in preventing at least 12.5 million girls from completing their education each year.
Climate change and girls’ education: school resource pack is designed for teachers and facilitators in education settings for young people aged 11 to 17. Over the course of six lessons (steps), pupils will:
- understand the urgent importance of addressing climate change and the importance of climate justice;
- explore how climate-related disasters often amplify existing gender inequalities and how girls’ education can benefit all of society in adapting and mitigating for climate change whilst enabling a fairer and more sustainable society;
- learn from other youth activists from around the world and think about the stages that might be involved in planning for social action.
As part of their learning, pupils will have the opportunity to develop core skills in critical thinking and problem solving, citizenship, student leadership, creativity and imagination and aspects of digital literacy.
