This specialization offers tools and resources developed as part of the "Rise up" initiative by the Inter-American Development Bank (IDB) to combat climate change and improve the sustainability of the planet. Through the three courses that make up this specialization, you will learn what we can do individually, as a school, and as a community to lead a more sustainable and healthier life. You'll also delve into the primary ethical and social issues related to climate change, how to use games to support and enhance learning, and the main consequences of climate change for water, energy, landscapes, soil, and our health.
This program is aimed at primary and secondary school teachers in Latin American and Caribbean countries who teach science and topics related to climate change and the environment.
