Firms Certify Educators In Climate Education In Adamawa
By FABIAN EKERUCHE
THE Society for Planet and Prosperity (SPP), in collaboration with DCR Ambassadors and the Climate Champion Consortium (CCC), has awarded Certificates of Proficiency in Climate Education to 12 teachers from two post-primary schools in Adamawa State.
This is contained in a statement obtained from the verified X handle of SPP on Tuesday in Lagos.
According to SPP, the certification follows the completion of a rigorous four-month capacity-building programme covering foundational climate science, the causes and impacts of climate change, and practical strategies for adaptation and mitigation.
It added that the programme concluded with an intensive four-week specialised training on the Climate Education Handbook.
It explained that, armed with new skills and classroom resources, the certified teachers are set to establish school climate clubs, employing gamified activities and hands-on exercises to inspire students and communities.
It said the approach aims to make climate education engaging, memorable, and action-oriented.
It added that that the “Climate Education Handbook” would serve as a guiding resource for both classroom lessons and community outreach initiatives.
“We are proud of the dedication shown by these educators.
“Their commitment will not only transform how climate education is delivered in schools but will also strengthen grassroots climate literacy,” it said.
SPP extends its gratitude to DCR Ambassadors, all CCC members, school leaders, government representatives, development partners, and the participating educators for their collective efforts in advancing climate education at the community level.
