In 2018, Melaka Eco-School staff travelled to schools across Melaka to train new EcoTeam leads on the program and share best practices. Workshops included an introduction to certification standards, requirement, and the online application. The sessions also provided insights into current trends in environmental education and ecocampaigns. The overall objectives of this campaign was to spread awareness of Eco-Schools programme, increase the number of students and teachers participating in the program and enrich their knowledge and attitude on climate change, teaching them practical skills in managing climate change. A total of 120 students and 30 teachers participated in the campaign showing an exponential rise of participants from 30 in 2017 to 117 in 2018. GGAF and partners are encouraged to see this achievement and will continue replicating this programme across Malaysia.
