Pregnant women are among the groups most affected by the negative health effects of climate change, such as low birth weight, preterm birth, premature rupture of membranes, stillbirth, gestational diabetes, gestational hypertension and preeclampsia, spontaneous abortion, malnutrition, respiratory illness and stress, depression, post-traumatic stress disorder. It can lead to adverse pregnancy outcomes, including psychological problems. Climate change education enables pregnant women to make informed decisions by raising their awareness and helps improve their ability to adapt to the negative effects of climate change. Health education for individuals and pregnant women uses methods such as demonstration, role-playing, screening, expression, question-answering, problem-solving, and short animated films. Short animated films, which are visual and auditory media and are an interesting method of health education, ensure that the information conveyed is stored in long-term memory. No studies were found in Turkey to determine pregnant women's awareness and hope regarding climate change or to increase their awareness and knowledge through education and short animated films. The creation of an original short animated film and its support through education show the difference of this study from other studies. Therefore, this study was planned based on the assumption that climate change education and short animated film would increase the awareness and hope of pregnant women. The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of climate change education and short animated film on pregnant women's awareness and hope. This study was designed as a randomized controlled trial.
