There is power in narrative. Stories are a fundamentally human way of communicating, and they can transcend language, culture, and locality barriers. We understand this, just as we understand that young people are leading the global movement for addressing the climate and nature crises through storytelling.
Join us for a participatory workshop, co-hosted by GYBN, YOUNGO, and Y4N, to launch an update of the Global Youth Position Statement on Nature-based Solutions (NbS), highlighting new findings from youth consultations worldwide.
Join us as we highlight how youth-led storytelling, policy advocacy, and climate mobility evidence can be scaled and integrated into global adaptation finance systems —especially under the Green Climate Fund (GCF).
