This disclosure contains ministerial correspondence and a proposal regarding climate change education (CCE) inclusion in Australia's 2025 Nationally Determined Contribution (NDC) update under the Paris Agreement. A correspondent urged Minister Bowen to include CCE in the NDC, noting that 90 nations including the UK have already done so, citing UNESCO's call for explicit education integration. An attached proposal outlines a framework for comprehensive CCE commitments aligned with UNFCCC Action for Climate Empowerment principles and UNESCO's Greening Education Partnership pillars, recommending Australia develop a national ACE strategy. The documents represent preliminary policy consideration rather than final regulatory or environmental impact decisions, focusing on climate education as a climate action commitment rather than specific environmental site or species protections under the EPBC Act.
