Youth leadership on Climate Change in Paraguay

UNICEF’s Youth Leadership on Climate Change Initiative supports young advocates to influence policies related to climate change. In countries where the programme is implemented, UNICEF hires a young coordinator responsible for coordinating youth organizations and individuals actively engaged in climate change advocacy and for implementing plans to influence policies. The plans are developed through four steps: strengthening the youth-led movement, raising awareness, advocacy, and policy negotiation.

This report and case study describe the results achieved by the initiative in Paraguay in terms of strengthening the youth led movement and advocacy.
