We're thrilled to announce that YOTA, in collaboration with our funding partner, the Ford Foundation, will support a select group of young leaders from YOTA’s youth constituencies to attend the COP 29 Summit in Azerbaijan. This is a unique opportunity for young change-makers to actively participate in shaping global climate policies and advocate for the interests of youth in environmental sustainability.

As part of this initiative, YOTA aims to ensure that the voices of young people are at the forefront of climate action, empowering them to contribute to meaningful discussions on critical environmental challenges. The selected attendees will receive support for their travel, accommodation, and participation at COP 29.
