Climate resilience starts in the classroom. 🌱  In Noyon - a soum (district) in the southern Gobi of Mongolia, severe droughts, disappearing pastures, and dropping water tables are severely threatening herders’ livelihoods. Here, a Red Cross humanitarian room provides a vital space for students to learn about climate change adaptation and explore how they can help their communities prepare for climate risks. With support from China’s Global Development and South-South Cooperation Fund, @IFRC and the @RedCrossmn are raising public awareness of climate adaptation, including through school-based humanitarian youth clubs. Young people learn about climate risks and early warning, then share that knowledge with family, friends and neighbours. Because building a more resilient community starts with all of us. ♥️
