Climate change is one of the greatest concerns of the world in the twenty-first century and has a significant impact on the environment and human health in Georgia. The country is obligated to take effective measures to address this issue and has a commitment to implement its 2030 Climate Change Strategy, which requires a study of public awareness and attitudes toward sustainable development and climate change. Batumi State Maritime Academy (BSMA) is one of the local maritime educational institutions that plays an important role in raising awareness about climate change on the national and international maritime levels as well. The quantitative research was conducted to determine the level of climate change awareness among BSMA employees and students. In order to collect data, the questionnaire was filled out by 70 employees and 302 students. According to the findings of the study, 91% of employees and 72% of students are aware of climate change issues. The research revealed that employees and students are not getting enough information about environmental protection, and both sub-levels want to learn more about environmental issues. The results of the study will serve as the basis for developing the Batumi State Maritime Academy’s environmental impact mitigation plan.
