Multi-lesson climate justice resources (Trócaire)
Trócaire, an overseas development agency of the Catholic Church in Ireland, has worked with educators to produce resource packs for primary, senior primary, and post-primary classes respectively.
The resources were designed with Irish contexts and curricula in mind, however educators outside of Ireland will have no problems adapting the resources to context where necessary. Similarly, many of the activities and thematic content can be used and adapted by educators working at different educational stages.
School and Youth Debates (Concern)
Concern Worldwide regularly hold international forums for student-led debates relating to development issues and the work of Concern. This web page includes resources to support schools that wish to take part in the international forum, but also includes resources that could be adapted to stage a debate in the classroom, with educators and students taking on different roles of chair, timekeeper, etc.
The Existential Toolkit for Climate Justice Educators
As feelings of eco-grief and climate anxiety grow, educators are grappling with how to help students learn about the violent systems causing climate change while simultaneously navigating the emotions this knowledge elicits. This book provides resources for developing emotional and existential tenacity in college classrooms so that students can stay engaged.
Young People at a Crossroads Educators Guide
This booklet was produced as part of Young People at a Crossroads, a research project in which researchers worked with migrant-background young people in Manchester, UK and Melbourne, Australia to explore migrant family perspectives on climate change education, action and adaptation. These perspectives were published in a creative book that was co-authored by young participants in the project.
Emergency Exit (Christian Aid)
Christian Aid has produced a set of interactive activities for small groups to critically explore the impacts of weather-related disasters in different contexts.
The worksheets and assembly resources use real world examples and images to explore how the impacts of disasters differ and how this relates to pre-existing inequalities. This can be a segway into introducing climate justice.
Root Cause Tree
A resource to break a problem down into its cause: The Root Cause Tree assists students in identifying the main cause of a problem and giving them a comprehensive understanding of the related causes and consequences. The tree provides a visual structure for analysis of the problem.
