This Resource Guide for Advanced Learning provides a selection of learning resources on REDD+, mostly drawn from within the UN System. The guide is organized into two parts. Part I provides basic orientation for readers, including a brief introduction to the subject area and an outline of the specific learning topics covered. Part II lists available written learning resources as well as a number of training courses currently being offered, organized by learning topic. An Annex containing a list of non-UN learning resources concludes the Guide. This guide is part of a series of developed through UN CC:Learn to facilitate access to existing state-of-the-art materials relevant for climate change learning on particular topics.

This resource guide contains a wealth of learning resources on the fundamentals of climate science available that have been identified as important from a country perspective. It includes first guide which directs a user to specific learning materials and courses, as well as selected reference materials relevant for learning. This guide is a part of the UN CC:Learn Series of Resources Guides for Advanced Learning on Climate Change.

This resource guide contains a wealth of learning resources on predicting and projecting climate change available that have been identified as important from a country perspective. It includes first guide which directs a user to specific learning materials and courses, as well as selected reference materials relevant for learning. This guide is a part of the UN CC:Learn Series of Resources Guides for Advanced Learning on Climate Change.

This guidance document aims at facilitating access to learning by providing a “guided tour” to materials that are already available, focusing mainly on those available from within the UN system. This Guide is part of a series developed through UN CC:Learn to facilitate access to existing state-of the-art materials relevant for climate change learning on particular topics.

This resource guide contains a wealth of learning resources on integrating climate change in education at the primary and secondary level. It includes first guide which directs a user to specific learning materials and courses, as well as selected reference materials relevant for learning.

It can be considered a guided tour to existing climate change learning resources on integrating climate change in education at the primary and secondary level. It is written from the perspective of a learner seeking to obtain an understanding what learning materials are available for a specific learning topic.

The Resource Guides for Advanced Learning on Climate Change facilitate access to existing climate change learning materials and support the development of complementary learning resources, as appropriate. Resource Guides are compiled for selected topics of climate change for which a wealth of learning resources is available and that have been identified as important topics from a country perspective.

This brochure provides a glance to the work being carried out through the UN CC:Learn partnership, involving more than 30 multilateral organizations. The partners accross the UN system and partner countries promote capacities to ensure continuous and strategic approaches to the provision of knowledge and skills.

This flyer introduces the main points of one of the UN System Joint Initiatives: UN CC:Learn. This project aims to foster knowledge sharing and strengthening of climate-change learning and skills development. The UN system has much to offer in supporting the learning and skills development needed by leaders to meet the challenge of building climate friendly and resilient economies and societies. UN CC:Learn seeks to capture this contribution in a structured and easily-accessible way.

This activity report presents a summary of the UN CC:Learn partnership challenges and successes during 2014 – 2017.  The report outlines the efforts of the UN CC:Learn partnership on upscaling a well established partnership for climate change learning, advancing global climate literacy, and promoting a strategic approach to climate change learning at the national and regional level.

This activity report presents a summary of the Green Development and Climate Change Programme challenges and successes during its second year (March 2015 – February 2016).  The report outlines the efforts of the UN CC:Learn partnership on upscaling; on getting the free courses out to many more people in several languages; on continuing to expand the partnership of UN CC:Learn countries – now at 16 in total; and on increasing its visibility so as to provide the necessary knowledge and understanding about climate change related issues.

The study, Learn for Our Planet, analyzed educational plans and curricula frameworks in close to 50 countries across all regions. More than half make no reference to climate change while only 19% speak about biodiversity. The study notes a lack of attention to socio-emotional skills and action-oriented competences that are central to environmental and climate action. In an on-line survey of some 1,600 teachers and education leaders conducted for the study, one third of respondents indicated that environment-related issues were not part of teacher training.

The UN CC:Learn annual report 2018 includes key activities at global and national levels to advance climate literacy as well as new partnerships and achievements.

This report includes key activities and achievements from the 2011-2013 Implementation Phase of the UN CC:Learn partnership. 

This technical document was developed as a prototype guide to assist Parties not included in Annex I of the UN Climate Change Convention to prepare the vulnerability and adaptation (V&A) section of their national communications. Although this module can be read alone, it is also the second in a series of four modules that form a complete resource guide for preparing the national communications of non-Annex I Parties.

This Comprehensive Guide for Planning Mass Evacuations in Natural Disasters attempts to bring together emergency planning needs and humanitarian considerations which are complementary in so many ways. 

This guidance document aims to identify, analyse, and profile institutions providing green economy learning. The document is useful to students, trainers, and institutions that are looking for a reliable training partner with expertise in a specific thematic area or a region. Each learning institution is featured in an individual profile page, including: a brief description of the learning institution, contact details, and key information related to the green economy learning activities (e.g. type of activity, thematic and regional scope).

This manual has been created to support secondary school educators in their efforts to work with youth to take action on climate change. Through the activities contained, students have the opportunity to discover how climate change is affecting children around the world, especially children in developing countries. The goal of this guide is to inspire both teachers and students to connect local issues to global concerns and inspire local action.

This manual has been prepared as a reference and guide for further training and capacity building of agricultural extension workers and development professionals to deal with climate change impacts and adaptation, using the example of drought-prone areas of Bangladesh. It also presents suggestions for a three-day training course that would be readily adaptable for any areas of Bangladesh affected by climate-related risks. The information presented would enable participants to prepare, demonstrate and implement location-specific adaptation practices and, thus, to improve the adaptive capacity of rural livelihoods to climate change in agriculture and allied sectors.
