YOUTH CLIMATE ACTION DAY
Weather extremes and reports of disasters make it clear: Climate change is dramatically picking up speed. At the same time, concern about climate change makes people all over the world join and take the streets. A global climate movement has emerged.
Many groups in different countries participated at Youth Climate Action Day since 2012. They planted trees, painted posters, took part in international online workshops, organized garbage collection campaigns, built insect houses and creatively campaigned for climate protection.
What’s happening this year?
We are calling on youth groups to take action for climate protection and climate justice and are organizing a social media campaign around the UN Climate Change Conference (11 – 22 November 2024) to raise the profile of young climate activism worldwide. We are also sending our messages for climate justice to politicians in our countries and around the world. You can find more information under „Participate“ or in our call for application.
