Description

The Education for Climate Coalition is the place where the education community at large can engage in co-creation processes. The participatory challenges developed in this frame through co-innovation labs involve teachers, students and education stakeholders aiming at promoting education for environmental sustainability through tangible learning outcomes. 

Together, we aspire to increase the impact of these challenges and make a real change for education and training.

And for this, policy and practice go hand in hand. 

On the one hand, community members have repeatedly expressed their desire to meet policy experts to better understand the policy background, its ins and outs and opportunities in order to better design concrete green education projects and make them count.  

Policy experts, on the other hand, need better insight into implementation and experimentation processes within the education community.  

This forum will be the occasion to organise such an exchange- and action-driven meeting between policy and practice. Join: 

  1. a high-level panel discussing how to concretely equip learners with the necessary skills for the green transition with Mariya Gabriel, Commissioner for Innovation, Research, Culture, Education and Youth
  2. concrete co-design dialogues between community members and policy experts around community challenges at different stages of their development.
