- Abstract
- This chapter looks in particular into the backgrounds of youth advocates attending international climate conferences, by examining the data collected at COP27 and the 17th Conference of Youth (COY17), a youth-focused event held just before COP27. It starts with the methodological framework used for data collection and analysis and then examines the role of youth in climate negotiations, the profiles of youth participants at COY17 and COP27 and their motivations. Finally, we discuss the impact that youth participants had on the COP27 negotiations and propose recommendations to policy makers based on our findings.
