The #Youth4ClimateLive Series, hosted by the Italian Ministry for the Environment, Land and Sea, in collaboration with Connect4Climate – World Bank Group and the Office of the UN Secretary-General’s Envoy on Youth, was an interactive virtual series of events conceived to build momentum toward the 2021 Youth4Climate: Driving Ambition event in Milan, Pre-COP26, and COP26. The Series’ nine episodes covered a wide array of climate topics, with each session convening intergenerational discussions featuring a diverse group of unstoppable youth at the forefront of creative climate action.
The Series concluded in February 2021, but the journey toward September’s landmark Youth4Climate: Driving Ambition and Pre-COP26 continues. Some 400 young climate champions from the 197 member countries of the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change will meet in Milan from 28 to 30 September 2021 to participate in fast-paced working groups with their peers from around the world and develop concrete proposals that will be presented to the Ministers attending the Pre-COP and COP26.
