MPRA Paper from University Library of Munich, Germany

Abstract: We are living in a dynamic and changing world, one that requires youth and young people to be critically informed and prepared to respond ethically and speedily to real-world, complex sustainability challenges. Youth-led initiatives on climate change and sustainability are gaining momentum and have firmly positioned the issue of sustainable development at the core of political agendas at local, national and global levels. Through its first two recommendations, this policy brief proposal seeks to increase youth voice and agency at local and national levels, and in doing so, empower and support youth-led transformative actions for climate change and sustainable development. The third policy recommendation aims to progress youth education for sustainable development and to enhance intergenerational equity, through the (re-)formation of national policies and strategies to accelerate the integration of ICT-enabled education for climate change and sustainable development across the G20 partnership.
