Countdown to COP26

Ensuring that all learners receive their entitlement to Learning for Sustainability (LfS), including a strong focus on climate justice education, will enable us to build a lasting legacy from the COP26 Summit. The resources below remain relevant and can be used to help young people engage in the key themes relating to climate change and sustainability.

These resources continue to be relevant to all those with an interest in climate education and Learning for Sustainability.
