Abstract : Aims and Objectives: The goal of the research study is to assess the effectiveness of structured teaching programme on knowledge related to health hazards of global warming on children among high school students.  Methods: Pre-experimental one group pre-test post-test design was recruited to assess the effectiveness of structured teaching programme on knowledge related to health hazards of global warming on children among high school students in selected schools at Mysuru. In view of the nature of the problem and to accomplish the objectives of the study, a structured teaching programme was prepared focusing on knowledge related to health hazards of global warming on children. In order to evaluate the success of an organized education program, a knowledge questionnaire was created. With the help of mentors and subject-matter experts in the fields of statistics, pediatrics, and nursing, the tool's reliability (R=0.87) was evaluated, and its validity was guaranteed. A non-probability convenient sampling strategy was used to pick 100 high school students for the study at Shikshkarni Central School in Mysuru. To get the required information, a structured knowledge questionnaire was given. Descriptive and inferential statistics were used to analyze the data.Result: The mean pre-test score for the knowledge assessment was 11.19, and the mean post-test score was 21.42.This demonstrated that the STP was successful in raising high school students' awareness of the health risks that climate change poses to children. Since there is a substantial difference between the mean pre-test and mean post-test knowledge scores, the research hypothesis (H1) is accepted.

Keywords : STP; Knowledge; Livestock; Stunting; PTSD; Heat stress; Trafficking.
