Abstract
In a global context marked by the climate crisis, environmental education and training have taken a different path, adapting to current technologies. It is in these circumstances that learning platforms (from now on LP’s) emerge, changing the way we learn and perform around climate change. This type of web app can provide remote knowledge, and has taken on a growing role the last few years. However, despite their potential, challenges remain, such as inequality in digital access, poor variety of languages and cultural adaptation, a lack of media outreach, and the absence of assessments of their real impact on communities in emerging countries. Added to this is the fact that most of these platforms operate without governmental support or local educational networks. This research aims to analyze both the advantages and disadvantages of these LPs, their level of access, and their contribution to climate education in countries of the Global South, presenting strategies and recommendations to consolidate a more effective climate learning platform in emerging countries.
