ECO2 COP28 Schools Climate Conference
ECO2 COP28 Climate Conference
Inspire and educate your students about the impact of climate change and learn what people around the world are doing to combat it.
Last year over 3000 pupils from 100 schools in 8 countries took part in the ECO2 COP27 Schools Climate Conference. This year, ahead of COP28 in December, in Dubai, United Arab Emirates, we are running another conference, ECO2 COP28 Schools Climate Conference. This years theme is Energy, in-line with the main focus of the discussions which will take place at COP28.
The ECO2 COP28 Schools Climate Conferences will take place on the 6th and 7th December 2023. Aimed at pupils aged 7 – 14, these exciting and interactive online conferences will engage and encourage pupils to share their thoughts, feelings and experiences about climate change. Based on feedback we received last year, the conferences will be split into ages 7 – 11 and ages 11+.
To help pupils prepare for these exciting and interactive conferences, free, online resources will be available, for lower KS2 (ages 7 – 9), upper KS2 (ages 9 – 11) and KS3 (ages 11+). Three lessons are available for each age group, covering the following topics:
- The History of Energy
- The Current Energy Crisis and How Clean Energy is Being Produced Today
- The Future of Energy
