Y-Adapt is a curriculum for young people that helps them to both understand climate change and to take practical action to adapt to the changing climate in their community.
An ecosystem simulation game and a scavenger hunt to explain ecosystem services ending with a game to emphasise the role a well-managed environment plays in climate change adaptation.
A 6 week period for youth to implement their Y-Adapt adaptation action plan in their community. They keep a weekly photo-caption diary to track their progress.
This is the final session of the Y-Adapt curriculum. Youth will create an adaptation card based on the real world adaptation they implemented in their community
I'm so impressed to see the curriculum here in Y-adapt. Does anyone know of anything for elementary level children, specifically around climate change adaptation, that is universal like Y-adapt?
An activity in which youth create community adaptation plans, a reality role-play competition to act out challenges and solutions and an exercise to choose an adaptation to implement in real life.
