The Breteau Foundation

Established in 2014, The Breteau Foundation’s mission is to maximise children’s future potential by providing equitable access to quality education through bespoke teacher training, educational content, and digital tools. Reaching over 100,000 children across 13 countries globally in Europe & the UK, Africa, Middle East, Latin America and the Caribbean regions, the Breteau Foundation is a non-profit organisation that believes in quality education for all children, regardless of background or location. The Foundation’s global team of education experts implement support bespoke to local contexts including local languages and curriculums. About the Plastic Changemakers initiative: The Breteau Foundation aims to inspire and empower over 1 million primary school children around the world to take action against plastic pollution in their homes and communities. The Breteau Foundation’s international experience in education has shown that children want to see more responsible plastic use in their homes and communities. The Breteau Foundation has partnered with the makers of the global hit TV series Miraculous™: Tales of Ladybug and Cat Noir ZAG and Mediawan Kids & Family, on a special episode on plastics simply called “Action”. Educational experts and environmental experts have co-produced the episode and have created a complete, easy to use, FREE set of resources for teachers, which are aligned to curricula. With the right knowledge, the Plastic Changemaker initiative will enable children to become ambassadors for change and kick start a global movement on responsible plastic use at home and in their community. The “Action” episode and Plastic Changemaker Education Pack will be available to stream and download (respectively) in September 2023 via The Breteau Foundation website for free.
