About this event
Can climate change education truly transform knowledge, attitudes, behaviors, and social norms in response to environmental challenges? Two recent research projects, funded by AFD, have explored this crucial question through systematic literature reviews. Their goal: to assess the impact of educational interventions, identify the most effective practices, and better understand the cultural and cognitive barriers that influence the adoption of sustainable behaviors.
During this webinar (in French with English subtitles), the research teams will present their findings and engage in discussions with policymakers and education practitioners.
Join us to explore innovative solutions in order to strengthen the link between education and the ecological transitions!
