Authors: C40 Cities and Youth Climate Council Global Alliance

This toolkit has been created to help young people establish a youth climate council in their city. As the urgency to take immediate and ambitious climate action grows, it is important that young people like you are actively involved in shaping and driving climate action within your cities and communities. This resource will guide you through the process of bringing dedicated young people together, gathering your ideas, reaching out to local city representatives, and finally: creating an institutional mechanism for strong and effective youth participation in your city’s climate decision-making!
