Youth in Action on Climate Change: Inspirations from Around the World'' that the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) has been working with global young people to produce.
The objective of this new publication by the UNFCCC and the United Nations Joint Framework Initiative on Children, Youth and Climate Change
is to highlight concrete work young people do to incite their
governments and the international community to scale up action on
climate change and raise ambition towards a post-2020 climate change
regime. It is designed as a tool and a source of inspiration for
developing and carrying out projects, initiatives and campaigns to
increase awareness of the causes and impacts of climate change, promote
sustainable lifestyles and advance green low-carbon development.
Some young people or organisations (like
the NGO I belong to - see pages 66 and 67) submitted some work they
have been doing at home. You can see them in the publication so please
take the time to have a look. I can't attach a copy to this email as the document is very heavy, so please find it and download it
on Google Drive at https://docs.google.com/a/ukycc.org/file/d/0B2A3zmhM4OpaLTZUSFF6WDFMSTA/edit
The
United Nations Joint Framework Initiative on Children, Youth and
Climate Change is also keen
for organisations to make use of the report and promote on their own
websites, social media etc. I will advise you to share it around you.
Today, June 11th the publication is being launched at the UNFCCC Intersessionals Climate Change
Negotiations at the Ministry for the
Environment in Bonn, Germany.
