A Planet that Needs Our Help – how teacher-led innovation in the Kyrgyz Republic can pave the way to a brighter future.
Inspired to action as part of their work with Schools2030, and ahead of our annual Schools2030 Global Forum this year, we asked our community in the Kyrgyz Republic to share their insights on this year’s theme – how teacher leadership can strengthen climate resilience.
In the short film, students, teachers and others share why they believe protecting the environment is so important; how the work they are doing with Schools2030 is building a climate-resilient generation; and how the Schools2030 Global Forum can strengthen our collective response to the climate crisis.
“If we only provide knowledge that the climate is changing, nothing will change in the lives of these children. They already know that the climate is changing. But if we instil in these children qualities that will help them be resilient, that will help them better cope with climate change.”
