RESOURCES

Global Dimension, powered by Reboot the Future, brings a vast library of resources exploring issues from climate breakdown, to migration and democracy, empowering educators to introduce global learning and compassionate values to their classrooms.

It is also a space for teachers to connect and discuss the issues that matter the most. Browse hundreds of Global Learning resources from top organisations and publishers.

Faculty for a Future's Seed Library is a searchable database of open-access educational resources that can support educators and students in their aims of transitioning to a transformative education by integrating sustainability into discipline-specific teaching and learning, whether by reviewing existing courses/modules or creating new ones; facilitating understanding of transdisciplinary issues crucial to our future; or adopting innovative pedagogical techniques that empower students as active participants in their education.

For those of us who are passionate about spreading awareness in an exciting way that gives young people a sense of their own agency, the Climate Action Game is conducted as an emergency climate summit organized by the United Nations.

This two-hour workshop for ages 12 and up was developed by MIT and Climate Interactive. Participants (the students) take on the roles of leaders representing different sectors of the economy and governments. Using an interactive simulator that allows them to see the outcomes of their own decisions, students can explore the impact of different policies—such as electrifying transport and pricing carbon—on the global temperature. Their goal? To create an energy transition plan that limits warming to 2 degrees!

Participants experience what it’s like to negotiate a climate deal to address the greatest human challenge of this century.

Climate Interactive creates interactive, easy-to-use, and scientifically rigorous simulators that enable people to see connections, play out scenarios, and see what works to address the biggest challenges we face. Their simulators are built using the long tradition of system dynamics modeling out of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.

We encourage you to explore below in order to learn more about their two core Climate Simulators—En-ROADS and C-ROADS—and the research and insights from these tools.

There are many trained facilitators who can deliver the Climate Interactive Simulation in-person/online. Alternatively, educators can use the En-Roads simulator as a learning tool, asking students to choose the most impactful policies and exploring the outcomes together.
