A huge shoutout to ๐Œ๐ข๐ซ๐ข๐š๐ฆ ๐€๐ค๐ข๐ง๐ฒ๐ข, who represented the UNCCD Youth Caucus at the recent Global Environment Facility (GEF) Regional Workshop in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia.

The workshop covered the GEF's strategic priorities and funding architecture, innovative financing mechanisms like blended finance and conservation bonds, community-led environmental action through the Small Grants Programme, project development, monitoring and evaluation, and the critical role of civil society and youth engagement in environmental programming

Thank you, Miriam, for carrying youth voices into these important spaces. And thank you to the GEF for consistently engaging and trusting young people to be part of the conversation.
