However, only limited evidence exists about awareness level of local communities about climate change impacts. In this paper we investigate influence of environmental education programs, currently being implemented by different NGOs, on the level of awareness about climate change impacts among young people in two communities of the Limpopo province. We collect empirical data during two focus groups discussions in a rural and a township community in the Limpopo province. During these focus group discussions we apply different participation tools to facilitate the discussion and to collect the participants’ views. date: 2016-12 date_type: published publisher: WP-16-023 creators_browse_id: 161 full_text_status: public monograph_type: working_paper place_of_pub: IIASA, Laxenburg, Austria coversheets_dirty: FALSE fp7_type: info:eu-repo/semantics/book citation: Nkoana, E.M., Komendantova, N.
