COP16 side event: Bearers of future responsibility - engaging children and youth in building climate change resilience

This side event will draw from our work on child-led/child-centred adaptation programming, specifically how the voice of children is necessary to achieve community-led adaptation to bring about integrated and effective climate change resilience.

there will be a discussion on children’s involvement in climate change debates and how their action is essential for effective mitigation and adaptation.
 
Speakers include young people from across Latin America: Walter from Belise, Ana Luisa from Bolivia, Wendolyn from Mexico and Coralie from Haiti
Joining them will be Yvo de Boer, Mary Robinson, and Margareta Wahlström; together with moderator Liana Bratasida.
