“If we want to protect the ocean better, we must teach it better”, said Audrey Azoulay, UNESCO’s Director-General.
Education empowers all people, but especially motivates the young to take action. It can encourage people to change their attitudes and behavior. In the classroom, young people can be taught the impact of global warming and learn how to adapt to climate change.
