Abstract

University students are the future leaders of a country. Their knowledge about such global problems is essential for getting involved and taking preventive actions. The primary objective of this research was to evaluate university students’ knowledge, attitudes, and practices regarding climate change. The study employed a cross-sectional design among 768 students from two private-sector universities in Kabul city. The data were collected from March to May 2024, and all enrolled students participated in this research. The results indicated that the majority of students (82.6%) had knowledge about climate change and its causes, which negatively affected their lives, and 57.8% had good knowledge about climate change. As a result, climate change education is highly significant at the university level, as most students have inadequate preventive practices.
