Youth Engagement: Developing Thoughts on Education

Education is crucial for advancing sustainability, requiring integration into core curricula from early education through university and corporate training. Students across disciplines emphasize the need for climate education, hands-on learning, and equitable global access. The U.S. lags in sustainability education due to gaps in policy, accountability, and international collaboration. Strengthening global ties, corporate accountability, and civil society pressure can drive progress and position the U.S. as a leader in sustainability.
