Boost your climate knowledge

What is the European Climate Pact?

The European Climate Pact is a movement of people united around a common cause, each taking steps in their own worlds to build a more sustainable Europe. Launched by the European Commission, the Pact is part of the European Green Deal and is helping the EU to meet its goal to become climate-neutral by 2050. 

Everyone has a place in the Pact. You can get involved whether you are just starting out on your climate action journey or already working to make a difference in your world. You can take part as an individual or as an organisation – for example, a city, a community or an association.

Want to level up your climate knowledge this summer? Then join the EU Climate Action Academy! There’s something for everyone to dive into, whether it be climate science or boosting your communication skills, and it’s all been created by EU experts. Follow our free, self-lead course online, at your own pace and from the comfort of your own home.
