The climate is changing and it is affecting those who live in poverty and in developing countries first. In recent times, the worldwide demand for action has been on the rise along with the urgent need to do anything in our power to mitigate the catastrophic implications. We already have a wide window of knowledge into how we can lessen carbon emissions and live more sustainably.
UNESCO Green Academies aim to tie this knowledge together and apply it in places where it is most urgently required. The Green Academies will provide environmental knowledge and climate-resilience skills to achieve this goal.
UNESCO Green Academies engage youth and their communities into transforming existing buildings, for example, schools, into climate-resilient structures, equipped with simple, affordable, and replicable changes.
In this way, active youth participation will achieve a sustainable lifestyle in their schools which feeds back to their communities. The focus lies on four pillars: Water security, Clean energy, Biomass production, and Waste management.
I mplementation of the sustainable development goals through the Green
Academy Project
Five pillars of Green Academies:
- Rainwater harvesting and utilization
- Waste management including grey and black water recycling
- Clean Energy supply application
- Biomass production (in form of a school garden for food, fuel, or amenity purposes)
- A youth club is the underlying essential capacity-building element and to empower youth for action.
The project run by the Green Academy Ethiopia Team will implement a Green Academy in the Yayu Preparatory school with the generous help of the Ministry of Science and technology Ethiopia. Starting with the installation of Rainwater harvesting capabilities, to give 1000 students access to water on campus. Once implemented the school now meets all of the 17 Sustainable development goals outlined by the UN. Furthermore, with schools being a focal point of any community, the new Green Academy serves as a learning platform for the members of the community to empower themselves to become more green and sustainable citizens.
