Global Action Days
Each year, the Foundation for Environmental Education (FEE) runs the international Global Action Days movement to demonstrate how individual actions, no matter how small they seem, can greatly impact our own and our Earth’s well-being.
Schools from all over the world are invited to join in! If you are interested in taking part of this year's events, accessing resources and getting your schools participation certificate, click the registration link below.
Global Action Days 2024
Monday 22nd April - Friday 3rd May
This year nearly 400,000 people, from 114 countries have already registered to take part. If you want to be part of this global movement and get climate ready, you can take action in your school as part of the Global Action Days campaign right now.
Participating in Global Action Days
One way to make a positive impact and tackle the climate emergency is to share the actions that you complete during the Climate Ready - Global Action Days. Every small action helps!
To help motivate and inspire others to take climate action, after completing each task we ask you to share photos and comments online using the hashtags #MyActionsMatter #GlobalActionDays and #GreeningEducation.
You can even register now and continue your workshops and projects over the coming weeks.
The following are themes and activities recommended by FEE for this year's events. You don't need to complete every action listed below, but every action matters. Head to the FEE website to find out more, access your resources and get started on your Global Actions Days journey! Learn more here.
