The Youth Climate Action Network (YCAN) is an initiative designed to empower young people in Ethiopia, Kenya, and Uganda to become active leaders in climate action. Recognising that Africa contributes the least to global greenhouse gas emissions yet suffers disproportionately from the impacts of climate change, YCAN seeks to bridge the gap between awareness and action by equipping young people with the knowledge, skills, and platforms needed to respond effectively to the climate crisis.
Project Fact Sheet | Digital Media Literacy and Youth Civic Reasoning in Kenya
The Digital Media Literacy and Youth Civic Reasoning in Kenya project empowers youth to combat misinformation, particularly during elections. By equipping young people with skills in fact-checking, online safety, and social media verification, the project promotes informed civic engagement and strengthens democracy. Key to the initiative is our Youth Media Literacy Handbook, supported by dynamic workshops, grassroots training, and community forums.
