Education is key to tackling climate change but it’s the teachers—equipped with the right training and support—that make it happen! In South Africa, the Keep it Cool project helps educators integrate climate change into their teaching. With schools highly affected by extreme weather, teachers are leading activities like setting up food gardens, composting organic waste and building rainwater harvesting systems. This work sets the stage for the project's next phase, as our very own Sofie Tack explains in this pitch 👇 The Keep it Cool project received funding from the Flemish Government through the Flanders International Climate Action Programme, an initiative coordinated by G-STIC: Global Sustainable Technology & Innovation Community and Departement Omgeving.

Teachers are the ones who understand the unique challenges their students face, from diverse learning needs to socioeconomic barriers. When teachers’ opinions are sought and respected, it signals that their knowledge and experience are valued, contributing to the professionalisation and status of teachers. This can increase job satisfaction, reduce burnout and improve retention rates in the profession.
