Africa Youth Climate Assembly (AYCA) | African-led Solutions to Global Challenges
The African Youth Climate Assembly (AYCA), is a dynamic and inclusive conference aimed at uniting and amplifying the voice of African youth, sharing ideas, and showcasing youth solutions in the global fight against climate change. With its focus on fostering collaboration and engagement, AYCA will gather young change-makers from over 60 nations across Africa and beyond, showcasing their work and connecting them with AU heads of state, policymakers, influential personalities, business leaders, non-state actors, and esteemed scientists. Under the theme, “African-led Solutions to Global Challenges”, our primary objective of the assembly is seeking systematical embedment of the voices of youth in the climate decision-making frameworks at the county, national, and AU levels before, during, and after the African Climate Summit.
