We are the youth of India. Climate change is going to affect OUR future. The decision makers of today, won’t be around in 50 years time to see the effects of their inaction. Hence we need take the action required to ensure that our future will be bright, clean and green.
The Indian Youth Climate Network (IYCN) is a coalition uniting Indian youth and Indian youth oriented organizations who are concerned about climate change. We as the future leaders of the country can generate awareness and establish consensus on what role India should play in the global debate, and how it should address domestic issues of climate justice and adaptation. It is a monumental effort but one with immense potential.
Supported by the Delhi based youth-led NGO, Delhi Greens, IYCN will be used to link up youth from across the country for the cause of climate change. With a country as large and diverse as India, establishing the necessary linkages is important to the formation of a holistic "Indian youth perspective" on climate change:
# We will support each other in our projects.
# We will unite for national campaigns.
# We will share our stories of local climate challenges.
# We will engage in workshops & conferences learn, exchange and empower each other.
# We will inspire others into action.
# We will change our future for the better.
Support. Unite. Share. Engage. Inspire. Change.
