WE FACE OVERLAPPING AND INTERSECTING CRISES, INCLUDING ECOLOGICAL AND CLIMATE BREAKDOWN.
In pursuing climate action, policymakers cannot forget young people and they cannot forget the gap this creates come to implementation of the said policies we are never part of at creation. We are empowering youth around Africa and diaspora to mobilize for climate action and hold our leaders to account on both the climate and ecological crises.
