In 2025, the United Nations Climate Change Conference, COP30<\/em>, will take place here on Brazilian soil.<\/p>\n\n

On Monday, November 10<\/strong>, COP30<\/em> begins in Brazil<\/em>, in Bel\u00e9m do Par\u00e1<\/strong>, a historic moment to discuss climate change, which is becoming increasingly extreme.<\/p>\n\n

But if it’s only November, why are we talking about it now? It’s because the \u201cSemi-Arid Youth towards COP30!\u201d<\/strong> training track is also coming up in 2025 .<\/strong> A training course focusing on climate justice<\/em>, agroecology<\/em> and coexistence with the semi-arid<\/em> region, aimed at young people up to the age of 35<\/strong> from different regions of Latin America<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n

It is they, the young people<\/strong>, who will build our future. It’s only right that these diverse young people should also be the ones listening, speaking and participating<\/strong>. Those who are active<\/strong> in a conference as urgent as COP30 in Brazil. <\/p>\n\n

The action is being carried out by the Semi-Arid Platform of Latin America<\/strong>, in partnership with the Sabi\u00e1 Center<\/strong>, the Climate Observatory<\/strong> and Terre des Hommes Suisse<\/strong>. The aim is to train and articulate rural youth<\/strong> to influence decision-making spaces – such as COP30, which is taking place in Bel\u00e9m, Brazil. <\/p>\n\n

And why does this participation matter? How are rural youth participating in COP30? And what is the point of this participation? <\/p>\n\n

We’re going to talk about all this training, about young people in the climate struggle<\/strong>, and also about the project \u201cSemi-Arid Youth towards COP30!\u201d<\/em>, now with Frances Andrade<\/strong>: a young climate and socio-environmental activist from the Brazilian semi-arid region. Mobilizer for the involvement and empowerment of young people and under-represented groups to participate in decision-making spaces at local, regional, national and international level. Researcher and socio-environmental and climate activist from the Alto Sert\u00e3o Sergipano. <\/p>\n\n
