Abstract

Partial reforms within the national education system across Egypt during 2022 as Egypt worked towards better fulfilling its promises to becoming more sustainable. These reforms aimed to better build students' capacity and their involvement in climate initiatives. However, noting the important role of schools in student development, this paper puts forward a call for more comprehensive reforms that aim to target more than just students' theoretical understanding. Remarking the vitality of a changed understanding and interaction between the students and the environment. As well as ensuring that the students learn to become active members of their community with a profound understanding of the reciprocal relationship they have with both their environment and communities. The posed recommendations are mainly directed towards the Egyptian government, especially the ministries of education and environment as well as school staff. Proposing ideas in regards to involving the students in taking care of their campus, adjusting curriculums across most if not all subjects, modeling climate positive behaviors to the students, creating initiatives and events within schools and well preparing the staff so that they themselves have an improved understanding and capacity to assist the students.
