How can youth help accelerate climate action from local to global levels?
Climate change is one of the defining challenges of our time, but young people are not just witnessing its impacts, they are leading solutions. From raising awareness and influencing decision-makers to driving local action, youth have a critical role in creating a more sustainable and resilient future.
