Wow! The Conference of Youth/Powershift has been amazing!
I’ve attended workshops on social media, communications, intergenerational equity (a big lobbying point for YOUNGO at COP19), climate related disaster relief, corporate sponsorship of COP19, and the connections between COP and national campaigns. I’ve been lucky enough to meet people from all around the world, all focused on one goal: climate justice.
Today is the first day of COY! Such an inspiring day so far, meeting lots of awesome people from around the world. Everyone here has an interesting story to tell. The first workshop I attended was about climate-related disasters, run by Taiwanese youth. Lisa's going to write more about it (and I broadly agree with what she says), but I want to share one other aspect of the workshop.
We had a blast at our Training Weekend! We leave for Warsaw in a week - here we reveal some of our thoughts and feelings ahead of the trip.
