If Yes, then one of the best ways, you can make this happen is by hosting an Official Local Conference of Youth or LCOY in your country!
LCOYs form a fundamental part of the process of youth inclusion in intergovernmental negotiations on climate change, bringing together youth from across a country for collaboration, brainstorming and drafting of succinct policy proposals. They are the first step in the road towards Regional COYs, the Global COY, and youth participation in the COP itself.
Apply now with your team or organization and join the global movement to save our planet.
