The event will demonstrate ways in which youth are leading the drive for greater climate ambition and climate adaptation. It will explore particularly the value of capacity building, networks and peer to peer exchange for youth from large ocean states as participants in the Peace Boat US “Youth for SDGs” program, which was officially endorsed by IOC UNESCO as a Contribution to the UN Ocean Decade, as well as Peace Boat’s Ocean and Climate Youth Ambassador program. The event will explore collaborations with governments, civil society and academia, looking at how youth can contribute to public engagement, education and awareness for political change.
