Highlights

As children and young people are being pushed further into the centre of the climate crisis, they are still largely excluded from the platforms that create sustainable solutions. This needs to change.

#ListenToTheFuture: Nepal’s Children and Young People Call for Climate Action documents and amplifies the perspectives of around 400 of Nepal’s young change-makers as they seek to contribute to climate action and policies – including the third generation of Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs 3.0). Children and young people have continually made urgent calls to action. 

By heeding the voices of children and young people across Nepal – and involving them at the centre of all levels of climate action – a sustainable future is possible for us all.

We owe it to our children and young people to #ListenToTheFuture.
