A technical lecture by relevant global climate experts will be followed by a testimonial by a youth speaker from the climate justice movement. <\/p>\n\n\n\n The curriculum covers the areas of active negotiation at the UNFCCC. It was built by consulting 180 young climate justice activists who gave their input on what they most wanted training on. <\/p>\n\n\n\n The course covers a wide range of topics including: Climate Justice, Adaptation and Resilience, Climate Finance, Business & Non-state Actors, Climate Policy, Energy, Nature, Gender and Climate Change, Indigenous Rights and Climate Change, Climate Litigation and Negotiations Inside COP28<\/em><\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n We will be periodically releasing the outcomes and insights gained from our interactive sessions, as chapters of a comprehensive handbook, in order to share our collective knowledge and progress with a wider audience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In order to make this course as accessible as possible, the course is free of charge. <\/p>\n\n\n\n The joint ONZ-GYC team are also working to deliver live translation in several languages, and will have interventions from experts in languages other than English. Sessions are recorded to allow for maximum participation across time zones. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Registration is open to anyone under 35 engaged in the climate movement. Previous experience in UNFCCC processes or climate discussions is not required! <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Applicants should note that they also do not need to be planning to attend COP28 to apply.
