Plant-for-the-Planet Youth Summit

This year’s summit will feature a range of engaging activities designed to foster connection, participation, and collective learning, including:

• Inspiring panel discussions and keynote speeches by speakers working at the intersections of climate justice, democracy, and community organizing.
• Interactive workshops aimed at strengthening skills for participation, collaboration, and democratic engagement in climate action.
• Networking sessions to connect with fellow youth activists and leaders from diverse backgrounds and regions.
• Creative working groups focused on developing community-based and collaborative solutions to climate challenges.

We aim for a balanced group of Plant-for-the-Planet Climate Justice Ambassadors and interested activists between the ages of 16 and 28 from all over the world. Plant-for-the-Planet will cover the cost of accommodation and food, however participants are expected to fund and plan their own visa and travel arrangements. Plant-for-the-Planet will offer merit-based scholarships to 10 accepted applicants, however all applicants are strongly encouraged to consider funding and travel arrangements when applying.
