Right Here, Right Now also offers a vast trove of K-12 Curriculum developed by the Climate Literacy and Energy Awareness Network (CLEAN), whose team of educators and scientists have reviewed and organized the best free teaching resources for K-12 through college related to climate change.
OUR FOCUS
Right Here, Right Now focuses on the human rights impacts and challenges created by climate change as well as the need for human-focused solutions. For further background on the Summit and a human rights-centered perspective, please review this article: “How a human rights approach to climate change can spark real change.”
The Summit explored solutions that every sector of society - government, business, education and individuals can adopt, including:
- Advancing education about climate change as a human rights crisis.
- Discussing the responsibilities and obligations of various entities to address crises
- Identifying actionable solutions that are grounded in respect for human rights
