Youth Climate Lab Youth mobilizing youth to create just, climate-resilient futures. https://linktr.ee/youthclimatelab

Youth-for-youth lab dedicated to supporting and creating innovative projects for climate action.

--
Our vision is to foster rapid, human-centric economic and social change by providing young climate leaders the support and funding they need to create projects and businesses that make enduring changes that help the world address climate change. We work with governments, businesses, civil society

and international organizations to identify, design and pilot new ideas for effective climate action. We focus on delivering a range of programs that have demonstrated potential to stimulate climate innovation and creating strategies & tools to make it easier to get involved in climate action.

What could a just, climate-resilient North look like in 2040? 🌎✨

At our upcoming Northern Climate Adaptation Dialogue, we won't just be talking about the future… we'll be imagining it together!

After hearing from climate leaders, youth advocates, and government reps, participants will join a collaborative breakout activity to dream up a future where Northern communities are thriving, climate resilience is community-led, and climate justice is at the centre. 💭🌱

Join us on June 3rd from 1:00-2:30PM ET on Zoom to explore climate impacts, youth leadership, government action, and the realities of adaptation in the Northern regions of so-called Canada.

Regional Realities is a webinar series on climate adaptation, delivered in partnership with regional climate adaptation centres across the country. Together, we’ll explore community-led solutions with a regional focus and discover how different regions are responding to climate impacts in ways that reflect their local realities. 🌐

We'd love to see you there! 💙

Introducing our partners for our upcoming Northern Climate Adaptation Dialogue panel: the NWT Climate Change Youth Council and the Yukon Climate Change Secretariat!

The NWT Climate Change Youth Council was established in 2023 under the NWT Climate Change Council (CCC) as a youth panel and advisory group to the CCC and the Government of the Northwest Territories. It provides youth-driven perspectives in discussions about climate change and ensures that youth voices are represented in climate change priorities, policies and actions.

The Yukon Climate Change Secretariat coordinates the Government of Yukon’s response to climate change; forms climate change partnerships with Canada, First Nations, Yukon University and other organizations; coordinates climate change activities and participation; and develops climate change policies and strategies.

⭐️ Re-Negotiating Futures: Youth Climate Diplomacy Mixer ⭐️
A pre-convening for SB64 (Bonn) + COP31 (Türkiye) during Toronto Climate Week.

What does climate diplomacy look like when youth lead the conversation? We’re bringing together youth across climate, policy, research, and organizing spaces to rethink how we show up in global climate conversations. Conversations, connections, and a delegate passport experience designed to reimagine how we meet in climate spaces.

What a great evening with KC Adams and our partners at Art City! 💛

Earlier this spring, we brought together kids, youth, and older adults for an intergenerational clay workshop focused on conversations about land and climate. Participants spent the evening creating side by side, sharing stories, and connecting through art in a welcoming community space.

Thank you to everyone who joined us and made the event possible 🌿
