#GenerationRestoration Schools
Become a #GenerationRestoration School
Inspire your students. Restore nature. Join a global movement for our planet’s ecosystems.
The Foundation for Environmental Education (FEE), in partnership with the UN Decade on Ecosystem Restoration, is supporting schools worldwide to take meaningful action for nature. By becoming a #GenerationRestoration School, your school will join a global effort to stop and reverse ecosystem degradation, while gaining access to inspiring learning materials, hands-on activities and other opportunities for students and educators.
From early years to higher education settings, and from small corners of the school grounds to wider community green spaces, every learner and every educator has a role to play in restoring nature.
What Are #GenerationRestoration Schools?
A #GenerationRestoration School is any school that commits to teaching and acting for ecosystem restoration. By joining the movement, your school begins a journey of learning, action and recognition, supported at every stage by free, high-quality resources.Throughout 2026, #GenerationRestoration Schools will receive a growing library of resources designed to support educators in any setting. New materials are released term-by-term, allowing schools to join at any time and build their programmes progressively.
When you sign up to become a Generation Restoration School, you will receive:
RESTORE films from the ‘Frontiers of Hope’ series: Access to powerful documentary series, real-life stories of ecosystem restoration filmed at the UN World Restoration Flagships sites around the globe.
LEAF Programme Lesson Plans: Teacher-created, curriculum-aligned lesson plans linked to each RESTORE film, helping students connect with nature in ways that can be easily adapted to your local context.
Youth-created YRE Action guides: Student-written guides aligned to each RESTORE film, supporting young people to lead and report on their own restoration projects in their communities.
Free FEE Academy courses: Self-paced online courses delivered across the year, with one course per term. Each termly course focuses on two RESTORE videos, exploring a diverse range of ecosystems and locations from around the world, and is supported by practical resources to help teachers integrate ecosystem restoration into any curriculum.
Official certificate & recognition: After registering, schools can optionally share more detail about their restoration action (or planned first steps). Schools that complete this short follow-up form receive a certificate co-signed by FEE and the UN Decade, recognising their educational commitment to ecosystem restoration and action.
