Justice and Equity in Climate Change Education Summary

Justice and Equity in Climate Change Education: Exploring Social and Ethical Dimensions of Environmental Education by Elizabeth M. Walsh (San Jose State University, USA)

This volume looks at the ways in which climate change education relates to broader ideas of justice, equity, and social transformation, and ultimately calls for a rapid response to the need for climate education reform.

Highlighting the role of climate change in exacerbating existing societal injustices, this text explores the ethical and social dimensions of climate change education, including identity, agency, and societal structure, and in doing so problematizes climate change education as an equity concern. Chapters present empirical analysis, underpinned by a theoretical framework, and case studies which provide critical insights for the design of learning environments, curricula, and everyday climate change-related learning in schools.

This text will benefit researchers, academics, educators, and policymakers with an interest in science education, social justice studies, and environmental sociology more broadly. Those specifically interested in climate education, curriculum studies, and climate adaption will also benefit from this book.

Justice and Equity in Climate Change Education Reviews

Justice and Equity in Climate Change Education: Exploring Social and Ethical Dimensions of Environmental Education brings together the writings of researchers who have worked at the forefront of climate change education, and presents climate change education and conceptual frameworks for considering equity, fairness, and social dimension, ethics of climate change, research case studies and educational programs which seek to advance, theorize, and promote the voices of those who have been silenced and marginalized [...]. This book is a worthy read for researchers, academics, educators, and policymakers with an interest in science education, social justice studies, and environmental sociology more broadly. In particular, this book is highly recommended for readers interested in climate change education, curriculum studies, and climate adaptation. With empirical results regarding climate change education in several countries, this book is useful for researchers to compare how climate change is addressed in various other countries. - Diajeng Retno Kinanti Putri, Arni Nur Laila, Nur Asiah, Australian Journal of Environmental Education
