UNICEF has developed this resource manual to assist governments and education practitioners in scaling up and mainstreaming climate change adaptation and disaster risk reduction in the education sector. The manual identifies key entry points at the policy, planning and advocacy levels, and it also makes the case for a process based on country-specific evidence and socio-economic analysis.

This guide seeks to maximize the effectiveness of our wide-ranging networks, complementary approaches and best practices. With a collective international voice of more than 100 million members, we advocate for the inclusion of young people in climate change plans and policies. The authors are proud to introduce this guide as a simple example of what can be accomplished by children and young people in practical ways.

About
Agriculture is the largest commercial industry in Maryland contributing over $8 billion dollars to the state’s economy. The Agriculture Law Education Initiative (ALEI) began in 2013 in response to a realization that Maryland’s farm families need more information about the laws that impact their operations. ALEI is comprised of legal specialists and other extension specialists who help farmers understand and comply with state, federal and local laws and regulations.

ALEI legal specialists stay up-to-date on legal issues and educate growers and producers on relevant laws as well as available resources.

This education comes in the form of conferences, in-person education programs, legal publications, partnerships, webinars, videos and articles in farming periodicals.

ALEI’s resources help farmers identify legal risk and take action to protect the viability of their businesses. When Maryland’s farm families are able to understand and navigate laws that impact them, it benefits their operations, the agricultural food network, and the entire state.

Watch our video to learn more about what ALEI does, our mission, and how we serve Maryland farm families.
