The Green Earth Action Foundation (GEAF) joins the Steering Committee for the Children and Youth Pavilion (CYP) at the 31st Conference of the Parties to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (COP31). Alongside more than 50 organisations, including youth-led non-profits and international institutional partners, this engagement marks an important opportunity to strengthen youth participation in global climate governance and ensure that the perspectives, priorities, and lived experiences of children and young people inform climate action.

A key focus of this collective effort is to host a dynamic programme of sessions bringing together young leaders, practitioners, institutional representatives, and other stakeholders. Through these engagements, children and youth will have a platform to share their experiences, elevate emerging solutions, exchange knowledge, and mobilise collective action towards a more equitable and sustainable future.

GEAF’s participation reflects its commitment to placing children and young people at the centre of climate dialogue and action, not merely as stakeholders affected by the climate crisis, but as contributors to solutions and partners in shaping the decisions that will define their future. As the global community convenes in Antalya, GEAF looks forward to working alongside its partners to strengthen intergenerational collaboration, amplify youth-led perspectives, and translate dialogue into meaningful opportunities for participation and impact.
