Justice and Equity in Climate Change Education: Exploring Social and Ethical Dimensions of Environmental Education

Abstract

This book examines how climate change education intersects with justice, equity, and social transformation, advocating for urgent reform in climate education. It highlights how climate change deepens existing societal inequities and explores ethical and social dimensions such as identity, agency, and power structures. Through theoretical framing, empirical studies, and case examples, the chapters offer critical insights for designing equitable and transformative climate learning in schools. This book is valuable for researchers, educators, and policymakers interested in science education, climate justice, and curriculum reform.
