Abstract

Traditional communities remain a dominant feature in the Pacific and are key players in land and sea management. Fostering improved climate literacy is therefore essential to equip communities to respond to the current and future challenges posed by climate change in the region. Increased understanding and development of skills to respond to the impacts of climate change is being pursued by integrating all aspects of climate change across the school curriculum. This article examines some of the work being done on climate change education in the Pacific and the proposed development of strengthened approaches to climate change education, in particular highlighting the case of Kiribati.
