WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOUNG PEOPLE ARE GIVEN SPACE TO QUESTION, CHALLENGE AND REIMAGINE?

At Change the Current, BCCN's Palapye Green Team stepped into the space as facilitators of conversations on intergenerational solidarity.

The Youth Climate Justice Lab brought together BIUST students to explore climate change through three interconnected lenses: water justice, gender justice and intergenerational solidarity.

The conversations went beyond “What is the problem?”

Participants were challenged to ask:

Who is affected?
What keeps the problem in place?
What would we change?
And what can we do first?

Working in groups, they identified climate and environmental challenges relevant to Botswana, developed practical solutions and considered who needs to be part of making those solutions possible.

For BCCN, the Palapye Green Team’s role reflects something important: climate action is not only about having conversations it is also about creating spaces where young people can shape those conversations and help move them forward.

BOTSWANA'S ECOSYSTEMS ARE AT A CRITICAL CROSSROADS

The newly released 2026 Botswana National Ecosystem Assessment (BW-NEA) provides the country’s first comprehensive, evidence-based look at the condition of our natural environment.

While climate change is hitting our ecosystems hard, it isn't acting alone. Human demands and environmental shifts are combining to place unprecedented pressure on our resources, but the impact isn't the same everywhere.

How are different ecosystems coping? Why does this matter for our daily lives? And most importantly, what practical actions can we take right now to protect them?

Swipe through to discover the key findings and the critical steps needed to secure our environment for current and future generations.

Sometimes climate action starts with the smallest habits.
Before you leave the house today, take a second look. Did you switch off the lights? Is there a charger still plugged in?

Small actions, repeated every day, can add up to a real difference for our planet.

What's is one energy saving habit you practice at home?

As a GCF Accredited Observer Organisation, BCCN values platforms that strengthen understanding of climate finance and support collaborative action towards achieving Botswana's environmental commitments.

Day 2 of the TNFD Training Workshop focused on translating commitments into action through sustainable finance. Participants explored Botswana's Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) Framework, identified practical actions to support the implementation of the Rio Conventions, and examined financing opportunities through the Global Environment Facility (GEF) and the Green Climate Fund (GCF).

The workshop also provided a valuable platform to engage with stakeholders from government, development partners, financial institutions and the private sector, reinforcing the importance of innovative financing and strategic partnerships in advancing climate resilience, biodiversity conservation and sustainable development.
