The UN reports that ‘to ensure a safe and liveable planet … humanity must phase out global coal production and use by 2040, and reduce oil and gas production and use by threequarters between 2020 and 2050.’1 The world’s poorest countries experience the most devastating impacts of climate change. Over the past ten years, they have endured nearly eight times as many natural disasters compared to three decades ago.2  \nEducation has the potential to play an important role in tackling the global climate crisis. Increasing environmental awareness and education on climate change can contribute to effective adaptation and mitigation. By providing vulnerable communities with the knowledge and tools to understand climate change and its causes, as well as possible approaches to managing associated risks, it is possible to empower communities through education and reduce the adverse effects of climate change.3  \nThe need for education to contribute is widely accepted. In the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC), Article 6 on education, training and public awareness states that ‘countries shall develop and implement educational and public awareness programmes on climate change and its effects.’4 The Paris Climate Agreement Article 12 also emphasises the importance of the role of education in supporting action on climate.5  \nAll member states of the UN have committed to working towards ensuring inclusive, high-quality education and improving education for sustainable development, as well as improving life in cities and tackling climate change through adopting Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 4 on education, SDG 11 on urban settings, and SDG 13 on climate change.  \nHowever, while education is key to addressing climate change, the delivery of education is itself vulnerable to climate exposure. All types of extreme weather (drought, flooding and other climate shocks) can result in learners missing school. Education systems and communities need resilient strategies to both adapt to climate change and reduce learning disruptions. Solutions may entail building climate-resilient infrastructure, improving curricula, teacher training on climate disaster risk reduction, and/or socioeconomic practices that safeguard learning during climate events.6  \n1 UN 2024  \n2 World Bank 2023  \n3 UNICEF 2019  \n4 UNFCC 1992  \n5 UNFCC 2016  \n6 Fitzpatrick & Amenya 2023  \nExecutive summary  \nThis report considers the impact of the climate emergency on school education in low-income countries, and explores ways in which those wishing to mitigate its negative consequences on learning should respond.
