Our Approach
YVA approaches the climate crisis as a symptom of the same system that has impacted frontline youth and their communities in so many ways. We focus on building a movement not just of those who already consider themselves climate activists, but of everyone who is impacted. Our theory of change is centered on three goals, found below.
1
To engage more young people as community leaders and activists, especially those often shut out of climate discussions.
2
To “change the narrative” around climate issues by building popular cultural support for urgent climate action
3
To achieve concrete policy changes that support young people’s right to a livable planet and just society.
