In 2021 alone, climate change impacts will prevent at least four million girls from completing their education. If current trends continue, by 2025 climate change will be a contributing factor in preventing at least 12.5 million girls from completing their education each year.
Yet girls’ education is a powerful strategy in the fight against climate change. Realising every girl’s right to 12 years of free, safe, quality education has the potential to help communities to better withstand the effects of climate change and also reduce the rate and impact of global warming. Gender-responsive climate education ensures girls have equal access to the knowledge and skills they need to learn and lead in a world affected by climate change.
“For girls and women facing the hardest effects of climate change...decisions our leaders make today will determine the future they have or they will not have.” - at the climate conference #COP26, Malala delivered her message and urgent call to support girls’ education.
