Connect4Climate and the University of Warsaw co-hosted an international workshop on how to get more young people engaged in global efforts to mitigate climate change and raise awareness about its increasing dangers. The daylong event, which drew prominent climate change activists and scientists as well as students, was held November 20 in Warsaw, where the latest United Nations-sponsored climate change talks (UNFCCC COP19) took place.

The focus of the workshop, which reaches an online audience of more than 300,000, was to identify new strategies to expand action on climate change.

The dominant outcome was that each person can make a difference when it comes to climate change – this was expressed through the workgroups, the diverse presentations from NGOs, private sector, and international organizations and the keynote addresses.

A report of the event is on the Connect4Climate website.
