“…Integration provides opportunities for using knowledge, changing relevant information and knowledge in students' daily lives, and bridging the gap between theory and practice in overcoming climate change (Casanova et al, 2018;Olsson, 2022). CCE integration can help students build a deeper understanding of climate change, increase learning motivation, prepare them for MI P-ISSN: 1829-877X E-ISSN: 2685-9033 the real challenges faced by climate change, and transform abstract concepts into more applied knowledge in facing the pressing issue of climate change (Aikens & McKenzie, 2018;Buckland et al, 2018). By developing a well-integrated curriculum, education can become a more meaningful and effective experience for students in efforts to overcome climate change.…”

Climate change is a concern for all countries in the world. UNESCO is taking part in efforts to increase awareness regarding climate change, one of which is by creating the Greening Education Partnership program. Climate Change Education (CCE) is an effort in the education sector to increase students' awareness of climate change. This article attempts to analyze publication trends regarding CCE and explore other opportunities for further research on the topic of CCE. The method used is the systematic literature review (SLR) method and data analysis using bibliometrics. The data used in this research are documents published by journals on the Scopus database published in 2013-2022. In 2013-2022, 462 documents can be searched in the Scopus database with the keyword ‘climate change education’. The analysis results show that discussions about CCE related to curriculum, learning, and students have been widely studied and published. However, there is no visible academic interaction between the authors. These conditions can be the basis that CCE needs to be implemented thoughtfully to increase awareness of environmental change. Apart from that, its implementation also requires collaborative roles from each sector so that CCE implementation can be carried out optimally. There needs to be a policy to encourage implementation by integrating CCE and the curriculum. Schools and universities encourage teachers and lecturers to deliver CCE in learning by including specific topics that can be related.

“…Second, to share experiences of how primary education in Fiji may impact climate adaptation positively for others in the Pacific. This state-of-the-art idea is such an important milestone in the formulation and the achievements of resilient Pacific Islanders for Fiji and other countries in the region at large (Buckland et al, 2018;Henderson & Mouza, 2018). Simply, because apparently schools who have already integrated and/or planned for integrating climate change into their curricula have their children and peers becoming more ecocentric and less homocentric (Hestness et al, 2011;Lambert & Bleicher, 2013;UN CC: Learn, 2013) in their attempts to adaptation.…”

This study uses an explanatory design to investigate the role of primary education in addressing climate change in primary schools in Fiji. A self-administered questionnaire (N=30) was conducted with primary school teachers from 14 primary schools in Fiji. Using frequency analysis, all teachers perceived that addressing climate change at a much younger age is more effective than just addressing it at the decision-making level. Furthermore, a Kendall tau-b was performed, and identified a significant correlation between the primary school teachers' location and recommendations for further training on climate change (τb=.59, p<.001) and work relevance and climate evaluation (τb=.6, p<.001). The same factors (e.g. work relevancy, helping primary education adapt to climate change, etc.) were explored qualitatively using desktop review, literature search and found addressing climate change at a much younger age to be significant. These results are expected to perfect not only the role of primary education but to contribute significantly to the achievements of a climate-resilient Fiji by 2030 and beyond.
