Calling all passionate youth advocates! YLabs is hosting an interview series at our Women Deliver booth to showcase the voices and perspectives of young people around the world as they reveal the impact that climate change is having on their communities.

If you are a young person (10-29 years old) and have seen the impacts that climate change is having on gender equality, sexual and reproductive health, employment, and mental health, please share your voice! Sign up for a short video interview with our team and be an advocate for youth-driven climate action at Women Deliver.

Interviews will happen Tuesday-Thursday at YLabs booth (#43).
