MENA and COP29
Menu
The Regional Conference of Youth on Climate Change (RCOY MENA) was the largest youth-led climate conference in the region, with a focus on highlighting the impacts of wars and conflicts on climate change. The RCOY MENA policy statement reflects the aspirations and demands of Arab youth in tackling the climate challenges facing our region. It emphasizes the devastating impact of conflicts on climate efforts, the scarcity of climate finance in our region, reduced aid to refugee-hosting nations, and the critical role of youth in fostering regional sustainability—all underscoring the urgent need for comprehensive action.
