BAKU, Azerbaijan, November 18. Azerbaijan is
fully committed to developing“climate education” and creating a
future based on sustainability, said Azerbaijani Science and
Education Minister Emin Amrullayev, Trend reports.
He made the remark during a roundtable discussion at COP29 on
greening education and climate literacy, the 2nd annual meeting of
the Partnership for Greening Education.
“We have taken steps over the past six years to integrate
climate change and environmental awareness into our national
curriculum. From elementary school through high school, subjects
such as science include important elements of climate change. For
instance, we directly relate climate systems and sustainable
development to more than 25 percent of our geography curriculum
standards. This integrated approach helps our students understand
the impact of human activity on the environment, the importance of
using renewable resources, and how to protect our ecosystems.
We are fully committed to advancing“climate education” and
creating a future based on sustainability. Climate change is not a
distant problem for us-it is a reality. Rising global temperatures,
changing weather patterns, and water challenges remind us of the
urgency of our work. This urgency drives us to make 'climate
education' a key element of our education system, preparing future
generations not only to adapt but also to lead in this area,” he
said.
