Target group: Vocational schools, LCS and occupational studies teachers
Vocational teachers are offered a guide and an effective approach to teaching climate protection. In two- to four-hour training sessions, teachers learn how to give their apprentices a sense of empowerment in the context of climate protection – without an ideological standpoint and with action-oriented tools.
Vocational teachers will learn how to communicate the complex issue of climate change to their target groups. This allows their apprentices to gain knowledge, be empowered to act sustainably, experience self-efficacy and reduce their fears about the future.
