SUMMARY:Harnessing the power of local communities and youth for climate action in Africa
DESCRIPTION:Welcome to the Africa Dialogues. We invite you to join the discussion on the vital role local communities\, including young people and women\, are playing in shaping climate action for health across the African continent. \nClimate crisis is a health crisis. It poses one of the most significant threats to global health\, and urgent collective action is needed to tackle the challenge. To find solutions\, we must involve diverse perspectives\, and elevate some of the voices that are often ignored but are worst affected by impacts of climate change in Africa. \nOur aim is to highlight immense potential they hold in driving positive change and fostering sustainable solutions. By embracing a community-level approach\, we can enhance African innovation\, empower local actors to spur community-led mitigation and adaptation measures\, and build a resilient future for our continent. \nClick here to register!
