- ItemOpen AccessClimate Literacy for Community Media: A Systematic Learning Curriculum(2023) Commonwealth Educational Media Centre for Asia (CEMCA)India faces its own set of climate-related challenges such as extreme weather events, water scarcity, air pollution, rapid urbanization and its impact is worst on the most vulnerable and poor. This systematic learning curriculum attempts to simply climate issues and make them more understandable, relevant and relatable, particularly for communities that are living in coastal, drought-prone, and tribal-inhabited areas. Community media can play a crucial role in raising awareness about climate change, its causes, and its consequences. This curriculum is an effort to provide effective communication strategies that can help community media to educate and empower their communities. As climate action often requires local action and local solutions- even if the problem is global, the curriculum adopts a ‘glocal’ perspective, and highlights local initiatives, innovative practices and replicable solutions for addressing climate related issues.
- ItemOpen AccessBecoming a Climate Champion: A Climate Emergency Course for Young People(2023-06) Dikinya, Jane; Maseko, Simon; Dlamini, Ntombenhle; Gama, Bhekithemba V; Karipi, Edwig; Mzura-Chima, David; Kalaya, Victoria; Nasreen, Mahabuba; Suryapani, Sanghmitra; Subagan-Mondez, Janet; Johnston, Julie; Naidu, Som; Mays, Tony; Hoffman, Lariza"Becoming a Climate Champion: A Climate Emergency Course for Young People" has been produced by the Commonwealth of Learning in collaboration with several of its open schooling partners. The curriculum at the schooling level is slow to change, but as students will learn, climate change is a very real and very important challenge – perhaps the MOST important challenge. As an open scholar and a young adult, targeted students have a vested interest in seeking to understand and mitigate the impact of climate change, since it affects their present and also their future. As open scholars, they also get to choose what they want to learn, when they want to learn and how they want to learn. They can work through the course content alone or with others with whom they can share ideas. They can work entirely offline or entirely online or in blended mode if their local open school provides such an option.
