Heal Earth Neuroinclusive Climate & Sustainability Curriculum
Heal Earth is a pioneering curriculum framework that weaves together interdisciplinary interlinks, climate literacy, and neuroinclusive pedagogy. Designed by expert educators and climate ambassadors, it supports both neurodiverse and mainstream learners to connect deeply with the living planet, through sensory-safe, project-based learning that cultivates empathy, systems thinking, and hope.
Grounded in the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and current climate education frameworks, Heal Earth reimagines environmental learning as a whole-child, whole-Earth experience. Learners don’t just study the planet , they build relationships with it.
Key Features
Neuroinclusive by Design: Structured, flexible modules that support sensory regulation, predictable routines, and diverse learning styles.
Interdisciplinary Learning Strands: Regenerative Earth, Planet Data Lab, Climate & Community Systems, Eco Communication, and NeuroNature.
Project-Based & Place-Based: Hands-on exploration, local inquiry, and creative expression.
Emotional & Ecological Literacy: Building resilience, empathy, and agency for a changing climate.
Heal Earth is not a one-size-fits-all syllabus, it’s a living framework that schools can adapt to their context, culture, and community. Every learner becomes a scientist, designer, communicator, and caretaker of their world.
