Protecting Our Planet Day (POP26)

On Thursday 19 November, thousands of students and educators across the UK will be able to join a day of live-streamed talks, activities and interactive sessions exploring how space agencies, satellites and scientists work to protect our planet.

Organised by ESERO-UK at STEM Learning, in collaboration with the European Space Agency (ESA) and UK Space Agency, Protecting Our Planet Day (POP) brings the world of space science into classrooms, connecting young people with the science, technology and careers helping us tackle some of the biggest environmental challenges facing our planet.

Teachers and educators can pop in and out of sessions throughout the day, with recommendations available for both primary and secondary school groups.

More than 150,000 people joined POP25 last November, for a programme featuring live link-ups with experts who showcase how they monitor, model, predict and provide solutions to tackle climate change and protect biodiversity across the globe.

The event aims to raise awareness of the many different careers that can help protect our planet, while inspiring young people to consider a future in STEM.
