What happens when young people from climate-vulnerable regions claim space in global negotiations? Not just to speak, but to shape what comes next?

In this episode, we explore the future of climate leadership through the story of Emaan Danish, a youth advocate from Pakistan and founding member of the Young Voices Council at Teach the Future. From visa hurdles to organizing sessions at COP29, we dive into what it really takes for young changemakers to bring their visions of justice, equity, and regeneration into high-level spaces.

Through Emaan’s journey, we look at the systemic barriers youth face, the futures they’re imagining, and how her project is pushing the conversation forward.
