Many people know about climate change, but few understand its connection to health. To address this gap, the APHA CEH Committee has developed the following toolkit using existing climate change curriculum created by the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences.
Click below to access the full toolkit, including a 100-minute lesson plan that's user-friendly and modifiable for all classrooms, grades 9-12.
We challenge you to reach out to a local high school, summer camp, or other learning program and offer to give a guest lecture about climate and health. Use the toolkit sections below to get started!
Below are supplemental resources, including recruitment tools, lesson plan resources, and more, developed by this committee to help guide you in implementing APHA’s Climate and Health Youth Education Toolkit and adapting it to your specific needs.
