‘Climate-Proof Schools, Future-Proof Children’
Climate-resilient education sustains learning through crises and equips children with the skills they need for a changing world.
Highlights
Across East Asia and the Pacific, climate crises are disrupting children’s learning at an unprecedented scale. Classrooms are flooding, schools are closing, and education systems are under immense strain. Children cannot wait for stability. They need learning that continues even when the storm reaches their communities. This advocacy brief highlights how climate-resilient education can protect children's learning by keeping classrooms safe, strengthening preparedness, and equipping children with the skills to navigate a climate-changed world. UNICEF works with governments, schools, and communities to safeguard learning today while building the resilience children need for tomorrow. The right investments and policies can make it possible for every child to continue learning through climate crises and thrive into the future.
