As the Youth Climate Diplomacy Forum marks its first full year of operations and ahead of its 2nd Regional Conference, we sit down with Professor Emmanuella Doussis, Chairholder of the UNESCO Chair on Climate Diplomacy, under whose auspices the YCDF operates. 🌱

In this insightful conversation, Professor Doussis unpacks how language shapes our understanding of the climate crisis, what solutions are most urgent, and why climate diplomacy is becoming a defining field of global cooperation. We also explore how education systems can better prepare young citizens for the challenges ahead, and why youth voices in climate advocacy are not just necessary, but transformative. 🗣️

Tune in for a deep dive into the ideas, values, and global efforts that will determine the planet’s future. 🌎
