Drawdown Learn is a broad initiative to encourage education and learning about climate solutions based on Project Drawdown’s research, analysis, and insights. Through our programs and partnerships, we are helping educators and students of all ages to understand the solutions available to address the climate crisis and create new ways of teaching and learning about Drawdown solutions.
This network is an online community of connected educators who are teaching climate solutions in K-12 schools, colleges, and universities using Project Drawdown’s research and analysis as a resource. If you are a classroom teacher in any discipline, and you are using or considering using Drawdown in your curriculum or course, you are invited to connect, share, and collaborate with other professional educators.
