Call for innovative green education actions
The second edition of the Education for Climate Days will happen from the 7th to 9th of November this year - register now.
Under the theme of "co-creating learning for climate resilience", each day will focus, from 17:00 to 19:00 CET, on one key Education for Climate issue.
On Day 3 of the Education for Climate Days 2022 we will focus on community actions and ask ourselves “how to implement green education solutions?”
We want to learn from you what your green education actions are to highlight the state of art in European initiatives.
Do you run or host an innovative green education project?
Tell us and share your actions with the community!
Until 25/09/2022, send in your project and multiply this call - exciting prizes wait for the 3 selected projects during a community showcase session.

Council recommendation on learning for the green transition and sustainable development
With this recommendation, an important step towards strengthening Member States’ green education capacities was taken this summer.
In our post, we update you on what this means and how the Education for Climate community is crucial for this.

Cyprus: Climate Education and (Vocational) Training in Protected Areas
Areas of high environmental protection are very interesting case-studies for education and training. In Cyprus, the Akamas Peninsula presents an excellent example of this.
How is sustainable and climate-change-adapted development promoted…? How is wildlife protection / wildlife conservation implemented…? How could/ should Education and Training contribute...?
Romania: Climate Change Summit
On 4-5 October, Bucharest will host the Climate Change Summit, a big international event dedicated to solutions for the climate challenges we are facing. The Summit will also give the floor to youth activists, students, and teachers.
