THE PROBLEM

Why this matters

Coastal communities need locally generated climate information and more opportunities for young people to participate meaningfully in environmental decisions. Household experience, youth leadership and scientific learning are not always connected.

OBJECTIVE

What we will achieve

Build a youth-led system for coastal climate data, community learning and locally driven action that strengthens inclusive resilience in Virac.
