The involvement of young people in climate protection and the sustainable development of the planet is essential. They are key actors in the fight against climate change and biodiversity loss. By including their perspectives and priorities, we can ensure a fairer and more effective approach to the sustainable development of the future. Young people are not only the leaders of tomorrow - they are already in a position to promote and implement sustainable practices in their communities today.
