Modeled on hope theory research, the framework includes four textual markers for hope: 1) Motivation for Change, 2) Belief that Change is Possible, 3) Plans for a Path Forward, and 4) Agency to Take Action. This article introduces the HOPE framework as a pedagogical strategy to assist educators in climate literacy practices that spark dialogue and healing through centering hope as a lived practice.
