A youth climate justice panel featuring organizers and advocates from organizations such as the African Climate Alliance will explore how environmental crises disproportionately affect historically marginalized communities while highlighting youth-led solutions and advocacy efforts.

Participants will then engage in an interactive workshop activity focused on asset mapping, systems thinking, and community-rooted responses to challenges relating to sexual and reproductive health, mental health, trauma, violence, and healthcare access.
