Climate Education NDCs

On the urgent need for climate education – Marina Silva, Brazilian Minister of the Environment and Climate Change

At EARTHDAY.ORG, we recognize the critical role education plays in empowering communities to tackle the climate crisis. To support global efforts for climate action, we’ve developed the Climate Education NDCs Tracker below. It is a comprehensive tool to monitor the inclusion of climate education in the Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) submitted by countries under the Paris Agreement.

This tracker provides an up-to-date overview of how countries prioritize climate education in their NDCs. It evaluates the extent and quality of education-related commitments, such as incorporating climate education into formal curricula, supporting teacher training, engaging local communities, and fostering youth leadership.
