CC-EASE: Climate Change Education for Action, Sustainability, and Empowerment

Project Description

The aim of the project is to examine the processes and elements of climate change education that alleviate the impacts of climate change on youth mental health and examine the processes that can support agency, solidarity and action. This project will take a youth participatory approach to codesign research with climate ambassadors. It will involve a collaboration between An Taisce’s Climate Ambassador Initiative and a psychology and teacher education academic. The findings will be used to co-develop climate change education resources, workshops, and podcast/blog to strengthen climate change education in schools, community groups, and youth groups in Ireland.
