Climate Matters!
The climate crisis is no longer a distant issue. For many young people in particular, it is one of their greatest concerns for the future. Discussions about the climate are increasingly shaped by fear, uncertainty, and polarisation. Instead of working together to find solutions, divisions often emerge.
Many people are frustrated by the lack of progress at the political and societal level and want to see more responsibility and action. With “Climate Matters!”, we create spaces for young people and youth work professionals to exchange ideas, share their concerns, and ask critical questions. What global connections lie behind the climate crisis? How is it portrayed, for example, on social media? What does climate change have to do with social justice? And what can young people in particular do themselves to combat climate change?
Our goal is to encourage young people to share their perspectives, challenge entrenched views, and actively help shape the future. After all, change often begins on a smaller scale than we think. But it never happens alone.
