Target groups: Youth play a crucial role in combating climate change since they are the first generation to feel the impacts of climate change and who will be the last generation to be able to mitigate its worst effects. Young people make up over half the world’s population yet are being excluded from COP26 (‘Conference of the Parties’). Youth voices are vital in addressing climate change, especially as most of the world’s young people are from those from countries most severely affected by climate change.
