UK YOUTH CLIMATE COALITION

In March 2024, we gathered in Bristol for one of our team weekends. These are an opportunity for us all to come together and strategise on our campaigns in person (and also have some fun!)

​

In March we spent time thinking about how we could platform the voices of young people in the upcoming general election and centre climate justice in the public eye. Keep an eye out on our website for more updates as our election campaign develops!

In December 2023 we sent a delegation of 10 members to COP28 in Dubai. 

​

The team campaigned on a number of issues, most prominently highlighting the undue influence of fossil fuel lobbyists at COPs. The team ran a side-event, met with negotiators and took action to draw attention to the direct conflict of interest between fossil fuel companies and driving climate ambition at COP. 

​

In September 2023 we celebrated our 15th Anniversary as an organisation! 

​

We organised a youth climate summit in London called PowerShift to bring together youth climate activists from across the UK. We celebrated the past of the movement as well as looked towards the future. 

​

We had amazing talks and workshops featuring many incredible organisations including Stop Rosebank, Stop EACOP, No Borders in Climate Justice, The Resilience Project and many more.

In July 2023 we headed to the lovely village of Hathersage in the Peak District for a weekend. We spend these weekends strategising, running trainings and building our campaigns. They're a really valuable time for us all to come together in person and solidify our campaigning plans as well as just to have fun with one another!

​

We had workshops on environmental psychology, loss and damage and also spent our time exploring the beautiful surroundings of the Peak District!
