Pathways to making change
These clinically reviewed classroom activities help young people feel empowered to make a positive difference when learning about the challenging topics of climate change and biodiversity loss, supporting both wellbeing and a sense of agency.
Learners explore different pathways for climate action by identifying their own skills and interests, recognising how small changes can create wider co-benefits, and considering who they can collaborate with or influence to make change. Each of the three standalone activities can be delivered within a single lesson and together help students connect emotional responses to practical, positive environmental action.
