Educational initiatives in Mexico and Ecuador are targeting student safety and environmental awareness. In Tlajomulco, Mexico, the ‘Tlajo verde y seguro’ program provided instruction to students at Colegio Santa Cruz regarding cybersecurity risks, such as cyberbullying and human trafficking, alongside protocols for missing persons. The program also covered climate change and responsible pet ownership.

In Tulcán, Ecuador, research at Unidad Educativa Fiscomisional La Salle examined the use of games made from recyclable materials to teach environmental stewardship to fourth-grade students. The study indicated that play-based learning with recycled items correlates with increased responsible behaviors, such as waste reduction and reuse.
