Some schools in Lagos state have secured a partnership with the International Climate Change Development Initiate (ICCDI Africa) to organise a sport for climate campaign to promote environmental action and to build a climate-smart generation as part of efforts to create awareness and advocacy on climate change through sports.

Olumide Idowu, the executive director of ICCDI Africa said that the action is aimed at educating young ones, especially students on the need for climate action and environmental justice.

The project, which was supported under the project of African Actives for Climate Justice, Pan African Climate Justice Alliance, African Youth Commission, Natural Justice and Oxfam, is open to collaborating with the Lagos State Government and the Ministry of Environment on taking the education and sensitisation of climate action to another level.

According to Idowu, the relationship between sport and climate must be better understood to formulate policies and take effective action to reverse climate change effects. The relationship between sport and climate must also be communicated to as large an audience as feasible, he added.
