First, a gamified online course for 440 teachers, enhancing their climate literacy education skills through Escape Rooms. Second, a Toolbox with an Escape Room Generator, enabling these teachers to create engaging climate-focused escape rooms. Third, a gamified online community fostering collaboration and resource sharing among the 440 participating teachers, creating a sustainable network for climate education innovation.
