"The Greening Education Partnership (GEP) is a global initiative that takes a whole-of-system approach to support countries to tackle the climate crisis by harnessing the critical role of education." Participating countries can engage in four areas of action: Greening Schools, Greening every curriculum (also referred to as 'Greening Learning'), Greening teacher training and education system capacities (also known as 'Greening Capacity & Readiness'), and Greening Communities. "Countries are invited to commit to achieve the set targets of at least two and if possible all four components by 2030. Progress is regularly monitored (...)" The UNESCO website provides facts and figures on climate education, information on each of the areas of action, open-access publications, videos, a 'Greening Education Partnership Global Tracker,' news, and more.
