THEMATIC FOCUS

The climate crisis has become a primary challenge on both sides of the Mediterranean.

Climate change is having adverse effects all around the world, by increasing for example the frequency of extreme weather events and by causing higher global temperatures, with far-reaching impacts on all sectors of societies and their economies.

Notwithstanding being a multi-faceted concept, climate crisis, among other things, recalls the fact that climatic and environmental degradation that is occurring worldwide, is having differentiated impacts according to the specific local vulnerabilities and is causing imbalances in the regional and domestic orders.

Socio-economic, and political systems are not adequately prepared for risk to face dramatic consequences. 

Young generations involved in the struggle against climate change inequalities and in the promotion of mitigation and adaptation measures are pivotal agents of climate action.   Young people have been able to make their voices heard, placing climate crisis under the spotlight. But this action requires greater efforts, as multiple factors prevent and disrupt getting access to the policymaking framework.  

This year’s edition of the “Youth Policy Lab” will underline once again the importance of young generations’ voice – as being the most affected by the multiple crises outbroken worldwide in recent years.

While young people are facing and dealing with both climate crisis and geopolitical tensions on a local, regional, and global level, it is critical and urgent to question whether the “leave no one behind” vision (still) resonates nowadays and how to “leave no youth behind”.

Driven by these crucial questions, the Youth Policy Lab will address the potential of Mediterranean cooperation in the fields of the climate change and promoting youth’s role in this respect.
