Description: The Climate Connection Global Knowledge Exchange: Part 2 of 8 – Knowledge and Insight What do we know about young people and their views on climate change? And where do we go from here? This section of the Climate Connection Global Knowledge Exchange explores the insight generated from both our research and our work ‘on the ground’ with partners around the world focused on understanding and enabling youth voice, participation and inclusion in climate action. Monomita Nag-Chowdhury, The Climate Connection Programme Lead, is joined by an inspiring line-up of global experts and young leaders: Environmental campaigner Phoebe Hansen; Mahendra Gooroochurn, a member of the Association of Commonwealth Universities Climate Research Cohort from the University of Mauritius; Chahaiya Pilkington from the Africa Europe Foundation; Heeta Lakhani the 2020-2021 YOUNGO Focal Point for Global South; and Climate Connection Green Scholars, Lamis Elkhatieb and Lidya Berfin Kutlu, who hail from Egypt and Turkey.
