On his part, Hon Rev. Ntim Fordjour mentioned that the Government of Ghana and its partners are adding climate change and sustainability to the country’s educational curriculum. Also, speakers at the event highlighted the need for collaboration, innovation and partnership with young people to take action for the environment.

The participants were also taken through a workshop on the use of renewable energy to address the adverse impact of climate change and promote sustainable development with youth-led action at the center to drive this change. The workshop was crowned with a panel discussion featuring speakers from Civil Society, Youth Groups and Development Agencies.
