Global Youth Summit on Climate Action: Diversifying Stories, Stakeholders, & Strategies

Sponsored by the Committee on Global Thought in conjunction with the Youth in a Changing World Project

 

Tell your story, share your ideas, scale our solutions in a conversation led by youth, for youth.

The Global Youth Summit on Climate Action will bring together young people from around the world to examine the global climate crisis from multiple local perspectives. By going beyond the narratives and popular figures that dominate media coverage of the youth climate movement, the goal of the Summit is to hear the diverse climate stories of participants, while compiling resources, networks, and strategies to identify ways to engage in climate work in local settings.
