Our common ambition: prioritising children’s health amidst the climate crisis
Collaborator(s): The Geneva Learning Foundation, Switzerland

This free peer learning experience brings together Save the Children’s latest policy guidance with The Geneva Learning Foundation’s proven method for sharing knowledge across borders.
This is not a traditional course. You create projects based on your real work. Colleagues from other countries review your ideas and share their own solutions. Together, you build knowledge that works in the real world.
What you will gain:
Learn why children born today will face 6 times more heatwaves than children born 60 years ago. Discover how climate change increases malaria, diarrhea, malnutrition, and mental health problems in children. Find out what works to protect children in different countries and contexts.
Get concrete tools to:
- Recognize climate health threats to children in your area
- Strengthen your health services against extreme weather
