Breaking frontiers on climate action for future intergenerational resilience tracker for National Climate Planning, will be shared.

Objectives:

  • This event aims to reflect on the main outcomes from the Summit for the Future and specifically on the agreed Pact of the Future, under Action 36 and 37 to strengthen meaningful youth participation at the national and international levels. With the keynote speech of the COP29 Youth Champion to set the scene, we will consider how and why procedures and means need to be bolstered to systematically listen, work with and provide meaningful opportunities to shape the future with young people. In short “nothing about youth, without youth”. This event therefore will serve as an example of how to foster intergenerational dialogues to build stronger partnerships to start to “walk the talk” on the Pact for the Future between individuals of different age groups, including youth, and between governments and youth.
  • We give special attention to two specific areas: 1) How to meet the needs and aspirations of all young people by having the means and resources to systematically listen to them; 2) What examples do we already have of meaningful opportunities to shape the future that could be scaled up or replicated?
  • As the Pact for the Future stated, we will look at the “progress made in promoting the meaningful engagement of youth in the United Nations… determined to accelerate this work by ensuring more youth engagement in the work of the United Nations and by increasing the representativeness, effectiveness and impact of youth engagement at the United Nations”. 
  • This event is meant to be an example of moving from words to action.
