Latest on Regional Collaboration
Asia Pacific Youth Forum on Disaster Risk Reduction and Climate Crisis 2021 (29-30 April 2021)

Every year, millions of children and youth around the world are affected by natural hazards and human-induced disasters. This special event is designed to build resilience through youth leadership. It aims to capture the voices and statements of the young people. Their inputs and recommendations for policymakers – in the form of the youth stakeholder group action statement of the Asia Pacific Youth Call to Action – will be used as an advocacy document, and contribute to the 9th Asia Pacific Ministerial Climate and Disaster Risk Reduction (APMCDRR).

Registration details here. This event is organized by Children and Youth International, supported by the Strategic Collaborative Fund.
