Teach the Future Winter Youth Gathering

Are you a young person who cares deeply about climate justice? Do you want to see schools, colleges and universities do more to prepare us for the climate and nature crisis?

Come along to the Teach the Future Winter Gathering – a free, in person event full of workshops, games and creative activities for 16-25-year-olds passionate about transforming climate and nature education (under 16s welcome with a parent or guardian).

Connect with other campaigners, learn from youth-led movements, help plan a demonstration and next stept for our campaign, and work together to imagine what an education system built for a greener, fairer future could look like.

Whether you’re new to campaigning or have loads of experience – everyone is welcome.

Full agenda coming soon!
