Joint Oireachtas Committee on Education and Skills
Climate Action and Sustainable Development Education: Discussion.
Mr. Shari Irfan:
Young people who study climate action and sustainable development and for whom this turns out to be a subject they take a particular interest in will then want to go and pursue the subject further and study it in college. This approach, therefore, allows for more conscious and aware young people who go into college and the working world aware of sustainability and how this issue interacts with their lives.
