About the event
The Youth Co:Lab and the Youth Empowerment in Climate Action Platform (YECAP) teams are delighted to invite you to join “Transforming Awareness to Action: The Role of Asia-Pacific’s Youth in Climate Action”, a side event at SDG Pavilion during COP27 co-organized by UNDP, Youth Co:Lab and YECAP.
The hybrid event will be held on 10 November 2022 in the Blue Zone at Sharm El-Sheikh, Egypt, and on Zoom from 13:00 to 14:00 (GMT+2).
Organized by young climate leaders from Asia and the Pacific, the session will share the outcomes of the pre-Stockholm+50 consultations and insights from the regional research on the impacts of climate change on young people and how they are addressing these challenges.
The session will give youth participants a better understanding of the context and perceptions of climate change and how young climate leaders, innovators and entrepreneurs are taking actions to tackle the climate crisis. The input will help the co-organizers and convening partners of YECAP to strengthen programming activities in the future.
