Greening Learning Spaces in Crisis Settings
ECW granted $650,000 to develop global standards and tools for sustainable, inclusive temporary learning spaces in emergencies amid rising climate crises, officials said.
- ECW announced from New York on Nov. 18, 2025 a grant to Save the Children, Arup, and WWF to develop standards for climate-resilient learning spaces.
- Amid rising climate pressures, the humanitarian education sector lacks clear guidance on designing and managing temporary learning spaces, which can otherwise increase waste and environmental harm.
- The initiative will develop and pilot practical tools covering the full lifecycle of temporary learning spaces, focusing on children with disabilities and those facing gender-based barriers.
- ECW says the grant is part of its strategic commitment, with tools shared openly through education, climate and humanitarian networks to support wide adoption and impact.
- The tools will be piloted in settings from refugee camps in Bangladesh to flood zones in South Sudan, combining Save the Children’s leadership, Arup’s expertise and WWF’s environmental knowledge to position the framework for broader uptake.
