We need and only need nature-based solutions that truly put people and nature in focus. Ahead of UNCBD COP16, UNFCCC COP29, and UNCCD COP16, find out where we are feeling optimistic and where we see concern for NbS as it continues to take centre stage with states and decision makers, the private sector, and civil society.
We are thrilled to launch the "Narratives of Change" campaign, collecting stories from youth globally through an open call, emphasizing their experiences with climate change, biodiversity, and human mobility. Learn more and submit your story!
Our 2023 Impact Report showcases how young people catalyse significant impact for the entire climate and nature movement, beyond ourselves. We invite you to explore in this report how our work at Youth4Nature is contributing to more robust, resilient, and transformative change, and imagine with us the possibilities if the largest population group on the planet received more 0.76% of the climate funding.
Check out what was on the agenda at our post-COP28 event in Uganda! Through presentations, a Nature-climate clinic and interactive breaks, we delved into robust discussions on Nature and Climate Change ahead of the Climate and Biodiversity Conventions coming up later this year.
Y4N Afrika ushers us into what April has been for them, while pressing on into their #PhotoChallenge monthly feature. Join them as they celebrate our precious planet, with actions on the streets, impacts and solutions to soil erosion, views from the lake, moments along the coast, and resilience in the deserts.
February is here with us. A month of love, a month of vibes, a month to continue inspiring the world. For our team in Afrika, we are at it again. Showing our love via our landscapes. Telling you as it is. Because we are all connected, and storytelling is an important part of us and our cultures. We give these to you, as we continue to craft the positive Afrikan story about us, our nature, and inspiration for what we can achieve.
Habari Afrika!
A new year, a new moment to continue inspiring th world through the lenses of our diverse and beautiful landscapes. We invite you to join us in celebrating the beauty that Afrika is, and leveraging on the positive stories that will endeavour to contribute to shape the true narrative of our region.
Viva Afrika.
That’s a wrap! 2021 has been a long yet fulfilling year for our community. While these stories bring us from mountains to deserts to coasts, they carry the complexity of raising deep concern, while also showcasing the beautiful landscapes and resilience in Afrika and its people. As you enjoy our December #PhotoChallenge, may it help you reflect on your 2021 journey and intentionally plan into the coming year!
The truth is, for most of us in the Global South, we feel the drastic effects of the climate and nature crises, and are acting now because we do not have the luxury of time to wait for any other person to do it! The time is now, and we are doing all we can. Be encouraged to keep doing your part as well. And for now, join our Global Ambassadors in their own words and photos, as they bring us closer to their landscapes this month!
We are back for the second month of the #PhotoChallenge with team Africa! Our #PhotoChallenge inspires action across the region, highlights the vibrant landscapes and environments our team members are working in, and showcases the beautiful backyards of Y4N Global Ambassadors in Rwanda, Nigeria, and Kenya. We hope you are loving these photos as much as we are!
