In readiness for Green Careers Week 2025 the GA has published Geography and Green Skills. This mini report promotes geography as the subject to support young people to gain the skills needed for future employment in a rapidly changing world.

Geography shapes who we are, how we view the world and how we live within it. It enhances everyone’s learning, livelihoods and lives, and has a vital role to play in supporting the next generation to develop their green skills.

Geography and Green Skills aims to highlight:

• how geography enhances young people’s understanding of climate change and sustainability and develops their environmental awareness and green skills
• the good practice of schools and the perspectives of employers and industry sectors
• the future opportunities and challenges for geography, and where further action is needed.
