Safe Climate Youth Summit

YOUNGO Technology Mechanism Working Group and SilverLining's Global Young Leaders Initiative (GYLI) organized and hosted the world’s first-ever climate intervention youth summit (virtually) in 2021. Gathering young leaders, climate change experts, and researchers, the Safe Climate Youth Summit kickstarted an official intergenerational dialogue to establish a tangible youth contribution to the field and put young people at the forefront of future developments in research and policy.

Young summit attendees were invited to a workshop to explore their ideas and concerns on climate intervention, in three key areas: international cooperation, research efforts, and education and awareness. The output was compiled by members of the Steering Committee - Béatrice Coroenne, Madeleine Karlsberg Schaffer, Neeshad Shafi, and Ricardo Pineda Guzman - as the Youth Call to Action.
