LCOY Working Group
About Us
The processes behind LCOYs are coordinated by the LCOY Working Group of YOUNGO. In this group, young people from all around the world communicate with each other to give support to LCOY organizers, to build this website, to review applications, and to further develop the concept of LCOYs.

PRINCIPLES of LCOY
SUPPORT
The most important role of this working group is to empower and support young people who want to make a difference in their communities.
CONSENT
All decisions are made by consent. However, responsibilities can be delegated to specific groups that can then act autonomously.
TRANSPARENCY
Meaningful participation by all is only possible if we are transparent about the processes and our decisions.
EQUITY
We actively welcome each and every young person, no matter what background they have and with what level of experience they join.
LEARNING
Both as a group and as its members, we have to experiment, make mistakes, and learn continuously.
EMPOWERMENT
Empowering climate leaders by helping them to set up LCOYs in their countries and regions.
COORDINATION
Coordinating and developing the interactions between LCOYs, the global COY, and wider YOUNGO processes.
CONCEPT
Further developing the concept of LCOYs to build a strong global youth movement rooted in local action.
Talent wins games, but teamwork and intelligence win championships.
