Sparked by 15-year-old Greta Thunberg's protest in front of the Swedish parliament in 2018, Fridays For Future later evolved into a youth-led movement for climate action. Teachers can use this as a case study for discussing youth activism and motivating students to initiate climate projects such as campaigns and advocacy for change in their communities.
