With climate-resilient programming taking root across the globe, it is vital to include young people at the center. In Africa, where youths’ experiences with climate change link to other challenges—from disrupted education to hunger, unemployment, and mental health issues—it is particularly important to listen to youths to build solutions that will work for them. By ramping up learning and engagement and incorporating youth-led action, climate-resilient education and programming in Africa can thrive.
On December 10, join us for a webinar exploring insights from over 200 adolescents, youths, educators, and stakeholders across Zimbabwe, Malawi, South Africa, Rwanda, and Kenya. This event will center adolescent and youths’ experiences, challenges, and solutions in climate education while emphasizing empowerment and future-oriented action.
This event is online only. Please submit questions via email at [email protected] or by using #Vision4future on X and Bluesky. For additional information including media inquiries, please contact [email protected].
