The chapter highlights the necessity to develop interventions for the mitigation of climate change (CC) and to provide CC education as one of the cornerstones of climate action. Although a mandatory environmental protection course has been included in all study programmes of higher education institutions in Latvia, they have considerable autonomy in implementing CC education content across the curriculum. It is important that training programmes on CC are designed considering the target groups’ background knowledge and labour market needs due to the highly interdisciplinary content, rapidly changing concepts and emerging new terminology.
