ClimateWatch Workshop

Climate change is the most pressing issue we face and the youth are voicing their concerns. Teachers can join one-day training workshops to help embed climate science into school learning and enable students to contribute to real world climate projects. The training includes background material on climate change and local ecosystems, biodiversity and how to identify species, data collection and interpretation, the use of the ClimateWatch app and website, and assistance to create an ongoing monitoring program with their students using the ClimateWatch program.

Dedicated education resources are provided, which contain lesson plans and links to the secondary math, science and geography curriculum.
