Who we are

 How we are funded

  • Our mission is delivered through a passionate community of expert volunteers and alliance members dedicated to high-quality and evidence-informed climate change education. While most of our work is driven by the commitment of volunteers, we have successfully expanded specific areas of our work through strategic collaborations and funding partnerships.

  • We are proud to have delivered our professional development programme, Climate Wise Schools, through a funded collaboration with the Teacher Development Trust and Leeds Trinity University.

  • Most of our work is achieved through the support of expert volunteers. However, we acknowledge the importance and potential impact of targeted funding and from time to time and we may apply for funding to support our mission. Our primary and ethical purpose remain centred on bringing together experts to explore what constitutes high-quality and evidence-informed climate change education to support schools.

    In instances where funding has been secured, we are committed to transparency. We will always openly communicate about sources of funding, ensuring clarity about the organisations that support our work. This transparency is essential in maintaining the integrity of our mission and fostering trust.

 How we work with schools
