Call for Application: Pre-COP 27 Youth Dialogue on Climate Change

Hi Students,

Are you concerned about climate change and interested in local climate action? This is a chance for you to bring your voices to the global stage!

Held in late August, several youth delegates of the 27th United Nations Climate Change Conference 2022 (COP27) are organizing three face-to-face sessions of “Youth Dialogue on Climate Change” at different universities to provide a platform for local young people to discuss climate change experiences and environmental advocacy strategies for Hong Kong.

The Youth Dialogue aims at highlighting, inspiring, and recognizing the role of youth in climate action to raise awareness, create a call-for-action, and prepare young climate advocates across Hong Kong for larger, global dialogues in the lead-up to COP27. All undergraduate and postgraduate students are welcome to participate free of charge. A certificate of attendance will also be awarded to all participants. You may find more details in the poster above.
