Right Here, Right Now: An Emergency Appeal to Support Education for Children and Adolescents Affected by Climate Hazards

Education Cannot Wait data reveals that, since 2020, 62 million children and adolescents affected by climate shocks are in desperate need of education support. ECW’s emergency appeal calls on donors to urgently mobilize US$150 Million in new, additional funding to scale up ECW’s response to climate change – and reach an additional two million girls and boys most impacted by the climate crisis with holistic, quality education.
