Climate resilience in the classroom: Embedding the education sector in NAP processes

The education sector is profoundly impacted by climate change, which places the education of millions of children at risk every year. Yet, access to quality and equitable education for children and young people is a key foundation to build the adaptive capacity of current and future generations.

National Adaptation Plan (NAP) processes present a strategic opportunity to embed the education sector within broader adaptation and development planning and budgeting, with multiple benefits for both the education sector and adaptation efforts.

Hosted by the NAP Global Network and Save the Children, this webinar will launch the ‘Education in NAP Processes’ report, published by the NAP Global Network Secretariat and Save the Children, and will focus on showcasing the extent to which the education sector has been integrated into countries’ NAP processes.
