CSE’s Green Schools Programme (GSP) invites its network teachers who have completed the CSE-GSP online course on climate change to The Climate Convocation: Second Chapter — an exclusive forum for climate educator-leaders who are committed to expanding their knowledge on climate change and transferring it to their students.
At GSP, we firmly believe that promoting environmental education and fostering critical thinking enable individuals to recognise the urgency of climate action and advocate for collective solutions at local, national, and global levels. We are grateful to the educators — climate leaders — who helped us realise this vision with our online course series, specially curated for school teachers.
The second chapter of the Climate Convocation takes the climate agenda further to discuss the new developments in the field and interconnections of climate change with health, sustainable cities, water management, etc. The platform will also provide avenues to share teachinglearning ideas within the community of climate leaders and learn from each other.
Please register using the link below to indicate your interest in attending the Convocation. Note that the final confirmation will be sent to the shortlisted participants based on their registration and task submission (details provided below).

Are there any pre-requisites to attend the Convocation?
Yes. One, it is open only to those teachers who have attended the online CSE-GSP climate change course. Two, after registration, all interested teachers must share a teachinglearning resource idea with the GSP team. This idea could be a hands-on activity, teachinglearning material, content resource created by the teacher, etc. This task is to facilitate knowledge sharing in a structured way among the group.

It will be held at CSE’s state-of-the-art residential training facility, the Anil Agarwal Environment Training Institute (AAETI). The facility in Nimli, Rajasthan is a three-hour road trip away from Delhi. The campus is located in the foothills of the Aravallis. Check it out here.
