Tackling today's biggest challenges requires hope that change is possible, and the belief that we can make that change.
Let’s do it. Together.

It’s no coincidence you landed on this page. Like your organisation, Cool.org is dedicated to making a positive difference on today’s most pressing issues.
For children and young people.
For their communities.
For their world.
But visions of making the world a better place and building brighter futures for children and young people are difficult to achieve alone.
Today’s biggest challenges aren’t isolated either. They’re interconnected and, just like adults, children and young people experience them every day.

Climate disruption
and eco-anxiety

Misinformation and rapid
technological change

Housing insecurity and
economic uncertainty

Inequity, inequality,
and discrimination

Global conflict
and sense of safety

Mental health and
lack of belonging
These challenges are bigger than any one organisation, educator, child or young person.
But by working together, we can help children and young people navigate them with more than just awareness. We can foster hope, critical thinking, confidence, and agency to take meaningful action.
It really does take a village to raise a child make change.
Which is where Cool.org comes in.
Over more than 18 years, we've partnered with more than 150 purpose-led organisations who, like us, are brimming with passion, purpose, and expertise.
They recognised that investing in education was the most powerful way to scale their impact, and that Cool.org was the most trusted way to do it.
In partnering, we take your expertise, your research, your campaign, your film, your competition (you name it), and create resources an educator can pick up and teach with confidence.
Our resources connect the curriculum educators are already delivering with the real world. This way of learning reaches young people who are already asking the questions your work tackles.

Connect your initiative, campaign, program, or content with one of Australia’s largest communities of educators.
Transform your film, book, podcast, or educational resources into engaging experiences that continue creating value long after launch.
Drive awareness of and engagement with programs, events, incursions, and campaigns.
Help young people build the skills, confidence and agency needed to contribute positively to their communities and shape their futures.
Independent research found teaching with Cool.org’s resources supported positive outcomes for children, young people, and educators alike.

“Our impact couldn’t have happened without Cool.org. They brought the concepts and ideas to millions of children and have helped to spark ideas, awareness, and enthusiasm for a better future we can create. Great change can only happen through education.”
