Climate Blueprint

Education Directors Colin Izod and Suba Subramaniam have worked with Creative Partnerships in the UK and British Council in Canada to produce a climate blueprint. This blueprint is a resource for schools, allowing individual schools to develop their own creative climate change activities. The blueprint follows the experience of the 2007 Youth Expedition and what happened prior to, during and after the expedition to ensure that each voyager's journey had a lasting impact on their schools and communities.
