Video: 28@28 28 Minutes of youth-led climate finance solutions at COP28

At WWF, we believe in including all perspectives in fighting the climate crisis. We need to listen to the voices that are not being heard, like the voices of the youth. 

Young people around the world are greatly impacted by climate change, yet they are often left out of important discussions about their future. While they are eager for change and have the energy to push for action, sometimes they lack the connections to turn their ideas into reality. At COP28 we heard from 28 young activists from different countries about the need for funding their ideas.

We're excited to share our COP 28@28 video featuring these young activists from around the globe. Their stories remind us that without enough support, their good ideas can't become real projects to fight the climate crisis affects. By giving the youth support and tools, we can create a better future for everyone.
