Youth COP31 UK

We’re excited to launch a series of UN-style Climate & Green Skills Summits across the country, to coincide with COP31 (November 2026).

As world leaders gather in Antalya, Türkiye, young people across the UK will step into global roles – amplifying their voices, shaping decisions, and turning ideas into local climate action.

Current planned conferences include:
