Green Skills for Tomorrow: Youth-Led Solutions in Climate Action and Community Resilience

In this TED Talk-style session, young climate leaders from CorpsAfrica take the stage to share powerful stories of community-led initiatives that address food security, climate adaptation, and environmental sustainability. By showcasing hands-on solutions like sustainable cookstoves, reforestation, and climate-smart agriculture, this event emphasizes how green skills can transform communities and equip youth to be the vanguard of climate resilience. This session supports COP29’s goals by directly addressing SDG 13 (Climate Action) and SDG 15 (Life on Land), showing that youth are not just voices in the climate debate they are change-makers on the ground.
