dc.description.abstract	Education can propel faster and better climate action in two crucial ways. First, education can galvanize behavior change at scale - not just for tomorrow, but also for today. Second, education can unlock skills and innovation to shift economies onto greener trajectories for growth. At the same time, education needs to be protected from climate change. Extreme climate events and temperatures are already eroding hard-won progress on schooling and learning. Climate change is causing school closures, learning losses, and dropouts. These will turn into long-run inter-generational earnings losses putting into jeopardy education’s powerful potential for spurring poverty alleviation and economic growth. Governments can act now to adapt schools for climate change in cost-effective ways. This report outlines new data, evidence, and examples on how countries can harness education to propel climate action. It provides an actionable policy agenda to meet development, education, and climate goals together, recognizing that tackling climate change requires changes to individual beliefs, behaviors, and skills – changes that education is uniquely positioned to catalyze.	en
dc.description.abstract	L’éducation est un instrument puissant, mais sous-utilisé dans l’action climatique. Accroître les financements climatiques en faveur de l’éducation pourrait considérablement renforcer l’atténuation des effets du changement climatique et l’adaptation à ce dernier. Le présent rapport montre comment y arriver. L’éducation est le meilleur indicateur de la prise de conscience du changement climatique et peut jouer un rôle catalyseur dans l’adaptation au changement climatique et l’atténuation de ses effets en remodelant les mentalités, les comportements, les compétences et l’innovation. Et pourtant, l’éducation est largement négligée dans le financement climatique – à peine 1,5 % des financements climatiques sont allés au secteur de l’éducation en 2021.	fr
dc.description.abstract	La educación es un instrumento poderoso que no se utiliza lo suficiente para la acción climática. Canalizar más financiamiento climático hacia la educación podría impulsar de forma significativa la mitigación del cambio climático y la adaptación a sus efectos. En este informe, se muestra cómo hacerlo. La educación es la principal variable predictiva de sensibilización sobre el cambio climático y puede desempeñar una función catalizadora en la mitigación y adaptación climáticas mediante la reconfiguración de la mentalidad, los comportamientos, las habilidades y la innovación. Sin embargo, la educación se omite en gran medida en el financiamiento relacionado con el clima: en 2021, solo el 1,5 % de este tipo de financiamiento se destinó al sector educativo.	es
