Green Generation: Youth Innovations Combating Climate Change

About this event

Young people are already developing and leading innovative climate solutions in their communities, yet their contributions often remain underrepresented in climate decision-making and investment discussions. This interactive session will showcase youth-led climate action initiatives from across the Asia-Pacific region, highlighting how investment in young people can drive innovation, resilience, and transformative change. Through a dynamic innovation exhibition and facilitated dialogue, youth delegates from China, Nepal, Philippines, Timor Leste, & Vietnam will share practical solutions addressing climate adaptation, resilience, environmental sustainability, disaster risk reduction, and community action. Participants will have the opportunity to engage directly with young innovators, learn from their experiences, and explore how locally led solutions can be scaled and replicated across diverse contexts. To conclude, participants will be invited to contribute to a Climate Action Commitment Board, where individuals and organizations can publicly share concrete actions, partnerships, investments, or commitments they will undertake to support youth-led climate solutions beyond Bangkok Climate Action Week. This collective exercise aims to transform dialogue into action and foster meaningful collaboration among youth leaders and stakeholders. Join us to meet the next generation of climate innovators and discover how youth leadership can help shape a more inclusive, climate-resilient, and sustainable future for Asia and the Pacific.
