School Climate Assemblies: co-creation of climate change mitigation and adaptation strategies and sustainability competencies’ development
EDUCLIMAD is an applied research project that seeks to raise awareness and engage children and youngsters in sustainability, through school climate assemblies in 25 Primary Schools in the region of Camp de Tarragona. It encourages innovative democratic processes designed to learn, deliberate and make informed decisions through assemblies, where students search for climate change solutions, and propose actions to promote sustainability at local and regional levels.
EDUCLIMAD emphasises the strengthening of environmental awareness and the empowerment of children and youth through education, recognising their potential to become ambassadors and change agents for climate action and sustainable development in their environment by sharing knowledge and experiences with their families, local communities and policy makers.
