Description

Note Three years ago, we embarked on a journey to create open and free resources for teachers. We were overwhelmed by the positive response to each of our publications, whether in the form of activity booklets, dictionary, fiction, or early childhood lesson plans.
We were fortunate to receive a grant under the Climate Action Fellowship project from the U.S. Consulate in Peshawar. Initially, the project aimed to create a resource booklet of lessons and activities focused solely on climate change and climate change pedagogy. However, as we progressed, we realized the importance of first meeting with teachers to understand their current knowledge and needs. As a result, the development of the resource book was extended to the latter part of the project.
Now, as we near the end of the fellowship, we are preparing to publish two resource books for teachers, complete with ready-to-implement engagement activities. I would like to extend my gratitude to the U.S. Mission for their generous grant. Through this initiative, we directly engaged 50 incredible teachers from Khyber Pakhtunkhwa in a climate action projects. Their work has been truly inspiring, and it will undoubtedly encourage many more in their regions to take similar action. Their input helped us identify common theme sand lessons, which we have addressed by offering additional resources.
This book was primarily led by Miss Noor Ul Ain over several months who was hired using the Tehqeeq and Tarkeeb departmental grant at IED. After the initial draft, the booklet was reviewed by the MPhil bridging class of 2026 at AKU-IED. The entire team then worked collaboratively to add new activities and enrich the content wherever possible. As I arranged the book we added more activities where we felt the need. The booklet has been created using canva education however, we would also like to acknowledge using magic media and other AI tools to create some visuals and for proofreading some of the work.
I hope that educators interested in disaster risk reduction, education in emergencies, and climate change education will find this resource valuable and provide feedback for future improvement.
I am deeply grateful to all the teachers and school systems who continue to incorporate our open resources into their educational packs. We will continue to create more educational resources for them.
