We open the series by talking with the experts closest to us – The Climate Academy’s founder Matthew Pye and News Decoder’s Educational News Director Marcy Burstiner.
In a conversation on why we need to include systems understanding in school climate curricula and in the media coverage of the crisis, we touch on the myth of objectivity, why activating students’ knowledge through the tools of journalism is so powerful, and even the Civil Rights Movement.
Eyes on Climate is a podcast on how educators can and should teach climate change. We talk with experts in education, climate, and journalism, about how we can empower youth to activate their knowledge and create change through storytelling.
This podcast is co-produced by News Decoder, The Climate Academy and youth-focused organisation Superfluous. We are working together to develop an accessible, engaging, and thorough climate journalism curriculum for secondary schools all around the world.
Our project, Empowering Youth through Environmental Storytelling, or EYES, is co-funded by the European Union.
