Seventy-four young Tasmanians have had their say on what climate change education should look like, as part of the Young Tassie Climate Change-Makers Research Project.
This research project, led by the University of Tasmania and funded by the Spencer Educational Foundation, focused on empowering young people to reflect on their experiences with climate education, collaborate with key decision-makers, and co-create actionable recommendations for improvement.
Following regional workshops in Hobart, Launceston, Burnie and St Helens, the participants presented their Manifesto for the kind of climate education they would like to see to education leaders and government decision-makers, in an online forum.
