About the ClimatEducate Project
The ClimatEducate Project is a climate change education project of the Alpha Team Organization-ATO, a Philippines-based non-profit youth organization.
The project is a climate leadership initiative by ATO members who were trained by former US Vice-President and Nobel Peace Prize Laureate Al Gore in Manila, Philippines in April 2016.
Since 2016, the ATO members have initiated school outreach (termed non-online initiatives or NOIs) and they promoted climate change education using vector graphics posts method on social media platforms like Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter.
As of December 2019, most of its project members originated from developing countries and they have undertaken a total of 32 initiatives in 12 countries. They were also engaged in international environmental conferences, such as; the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC), regional to national climate conferences, and they have been featured in online and local media in Brazil and in the Philippines.
ClimatEducate Project is divided into four regions that is defined as a “regional hub” to ease coordination and contextualization of campaigns. Among the regional hubs are Africa, South Asia, South America, and a combination of Southeast Asia, East Asia, and the Pacific (EASEAP).
The current focus of the project is to further create innovations and sustained outputs for climate change education (CCE). The direction is grounded on the belief that improvement is attainable if open-minded and flexible climate advocates and educators will join and work together with a highly-diverse and objective-based project team.
The new project members will undergo mentoring and training for three (3) months through online peer mentorship, output assignment, and outreach experience.
