A Youth Climate Assembly in Ida-Viru - Case study

Aiming to empower young people to proactively shape the future of their region, the Ida-Viru Youth Climate Assembly is a powerful example of how to give youth a voice in the transition process and integrate their recommendations into official policy development work streams. The assembly brought together a group of 40 people between 16-29 years old, who actively learned about the challenges and opportunities of the transition, and developed a set of proposals – most of which were included in the national Just Transition Plan.
