A partnership between UCL and the British Council Iraq is enhancing Iraqi climate change and sustainability education. With Iraq, like many countries, currently grappling with the severe impacts of climate change, the British Council Iraq put out a tender to work with experts on climate issues through education. Working with UCL Consultants, academics from the UCL Centre for Climate Change and Sustainability Education were successful in their response to the tender and the project started in December 2022. The project began with a series of knowledge exchange activities in Erbil, Iraq to foster dialogue and collaboration between UCL researchers and Iraqi stakeholders, including policymakers, educators, and school leaders. The goal was to understand the specific challenges faced in Iraq and to collaborate in developing educational strategies. The UCL team created a report of recommendations for the British Council Iraq, focusing on how to support enhancements in policy, teacher professional development and teaching practice. They found that: - Climate change and sustainability education should include personally relevant and meaningful information. - Whole-school approaches are recognised as valuable in the context of climate change and sustainability education. - Access to high-quality teacher professional development is a key mechanism in enhancing school-based climate change and sustainability education. Ammar Tariq, Interim Head of Education at British Council Iraq, said: “[It has] inspired the process of developing schools’ annual plans to deliver climate change education as part of a larger scheme related to human rights education. [It] was driven by receiving an appropriate level of knowledge rather than focusing simply on course book design – and in that respect it was different to the process normally followed in Iraq and so had greater impact on the students, teachers and the local community.” Find out more: https://bit.ly/4dPhKr9 #KEF4 #KnowledgeExchange #KE #ClimateChangeEducation IOE - UCL's Faculty of Education and Society, UCL Consultants Ltd, British Council, Sustainable UCL, UCL, UCL Global Engagement
