Youth ambassadors

Faith-based youth ambassadors have been selected from around the country and spent a fun-filled experiential workshop, learning and sharing on issue of faith and climate change. In the lead up to COP17, youth ambassadors ran local climate change awareness events and took part in various discussions on faith and climate change. For the two weeks of COP17, the youth were involved in a number of creative exercises to highlight the need for urgent action on climate change, as well as offering support to SAFCEI’s many COP 17 activities.

The Youth Ambassadors Programme is managed jointly by our Eco-Congregation and Climate Change Programmes, and a full report on the first few months of the programme is here. SAFCEI Youth Ambassadors programme (pdf).
