Local Conferences of Youth 2023
Do you want to organize a youth climate conference in your country? Do you want to bring young people together and enable their activism, energy and expertise for a better world? And do you want to collectively organize to make youth voices heard at COP28 in UAE?
One of the best ways you can make this happen is by hosting an official Local Conference of Youth (LCOY) in your country! LCOYs form a fundamental part of the process of youth inclusion in intergovernmental negotiations on climate change, bringing together youth from across a country for collaboration, brainstorming and drafting of succinct policy proposals. They are the first step in the road towards Regional COYs, the global COY, and youth participation in the COP itself. Apply now with your team or organization and join the global movement to save our planet.
The form to submit applications to host an LCOY in 2023 is open now. Please follow link to apply.
