Olano Pozo // Climate change and sustainable agricultural development : Proceedings of the International Scientific and Practical Conference (Odesa, 19 September 2025]. – Odesa : Institute of Climate-Smart Agriculture of NAAS. – P. 91–94.https://dspace.onu.edu.ua/handle/123456789/43297Recent decades have witnessed unprecedented climate changes, posing significant threats to human well-being, ecosystems, and socio-economic stability. The increasing frequency and intensity of extreme weather events, rising sea levels, ecosystem degradation, and biodiversity loss – compounded by population growth, migration, and inadequate land use – have amplified societal vulnerability. International frameworks, including the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change, the Global Framework for Climate Services, and the European Parliament Resolution on Climate and Environment Emergency, underscore the urgent need for climate services to support informed decision-making and sustainable development. In Ukraine, the development of climate services and related education has historically lagged due to political, economic, and structural factors, including the legacy of the Soviet educational system and limited funding for long-term strategic initiatives. To address these gaps, the EU Erasmus+ project “Multilevel Local, National, and Regional Education and Training in Climate Services, Climate Change Adaptation and Mitigation – ClimEd” (619285-EPP-1-2020-1-FI-EPPKA2-CBHE-JP, http://climed.network/) has been implemented since 2020.enclimate servicesclimate educationEU Erasmus+ project ClimEdcompetence-based climate education systemvocational educationthe Master in Climate Services programthe PhD in Climate Services programArticle
