With support from the British Council, the Association of Youth Organizations Nepal (AYON) organized a youth-led policy dialogue to discuss contemporary issues youths in Nepal are facing and the leadership role youth can play in action against global challenges like climate change.
The project aimed to bridge the gap of involvement of young women and men in policy advocacy and climate action, by building their capacity as well as providing them platforms and networks. The project provides skills and capability to young people, offers connections to young changemakers to enable them to take action, and provides them with a voice and skills to deliver outcomes in their communities.
The event aimed to provide opportunities to discuss the issues faced by Nepal’s youth and the way forward, to identify areas, problems, and solutions for youth engagement for actions against global challenges like climate change, to sensitize stakeholders on their roles and responsibilities towards climate actions, and to provide opportunities for networking, information sharing, and constructive dialogue.
