Climate change litigation as a tool for climate change education
As the climate crisis worsens, climate change education (CCE) in schools faces growing pressure to become more rigorous, justice-oriented and holistic. Simultaneously, students and youth are increasingly involved in climate litigation, bringing suits against governments and corporations to compel enhanced mitigation and adaptation efforts. Recognising these parallel developments, this article explores the potential contributions of climate litiga…

METHODS: A search was conducted in five databases with a …

Our an…

We suggest that she accomplished this feat because of her ability to rely on embedded (Granovetter 1985; Uzzi 1996) network contacts that allowed her to bridge structural holes (Burt 1992) and link with people with whom she was not prev…
