The power of public engagement for harnessing climate action: Stories and lessons of empowerment from around the world

This dynamic event brought together voices from around the world to share their personal journeys on galvanising climate action through public engagement. The evidence was increasingly clear that in addition to scientific and financial solutions, public engagement is crucial to implement policy initiatives successfully.

From activists and young people to business leaders and ministers, the speakers shared what they have learned and what more can be done to harness a ‘whole of society’ approach to climate action.

The session involved two panel discussions, as well as ‘vox pops’ of people from around the world.
