Climate change is increasingly present in our reality and directly impact daily school life. The guide brings practical paths so that managers, teachers and school communities can respond quickly and organizedly, without losing sight of the recomposition of learning, he says.
Organized didactically, the document presents recommendations in three axes of action: school climate and people (welcome, psychosocial support and community engagement); dynamics and processes (infrastructure, communication and school organization); and teaching and learning (pedagogical adaptation and recomposition of learning). It also structures a chronology of actions: in a very short term, prioritizing the protection of life and the immediate assessment of damage; in the short term, guiding the resumption of school activities and initial repairs; And in the medium term, strengthening resilience and mitigating vulnerabilities.
The document also brings transverse issues relevant to educational management, such as trauma sensitive school practices, future literacy, resilience education and climate anxiety prevention. To inspire managers and teachers, the publication also brings together a collection of national practices, with examples of answers adopted by different teaching networks in confronting emergencies.
With this initiative, MEC reinforces the commitment to offer technical and pedagogical support to teaching networks, ensuring that Brazilian education is prepared to respond to the challenges of climate emergencies and ensuring the right to learn under any circumstances.
