Over the past few years, the world has witnessed episodes of extreme weather events occurring all over the globe. Island communities have typically borne the brunt of these events, and therefore seek to build the necessary resilience to cope, including the implementation of adaptation and mitigation measures. However, an even more fundamental aspect of building resilience lies in raising awareness about the reality of climate change in ourselves and future generations through education and outreach efforts.
According to UNESCO, education is crucial to promote climate action. It helps people to better understand and address the impacts of the climate crisis, which empowers them with the knowledge, skills, values and attitudes needed to act as agents of change. This week, our featured article focuses on the UN Sustainable Development Goal #4, “Quality Education for All”, and the role it plays in building resilience in island communities.
