Young Climate Leaders Driving Systems Change - A Breakfast at London Climate Action Week (Invitation Only)
Young Climate Leaders Driving System Change: A Breakfast at London Climate Action Week Hosted by TSI Consulting and ChangemakerXchange Thursday 25 June | 8:30am | Oxford Circus, London
An invitation-only breakfast gathering hosted by by ChangemakerXchange and The Social Investment Consultancy bringing together funders, partners and ecosystem actors with a select group of young climate leaders working on some of the most pressing and exciting initiatives in the global climate space right now.
Targeted youth action has already helped secure some of the most significant climate breakthroughs of recent years, and young people are increasingly at the heart of how the global climate agenda moves forward. We are bringing together some of those leaders at LCAW: people who have driven the recent International Court of Justice (ICJ) ruling, who are leading efforts on loss and damage funding for frontline communities, gender-just climate finance, unconditional cash transfers for climate defenders, youth participation in national climate plans, and more. See more about their work here. They are already driving systems change - but what does it take for their work to further scale and sustain?
