H eld on World Water Day, the Youth Adaptation Forum on Water brought attention to the young people working to create and implement adaptation solutions in practice. The Water Forum encouraged young people from Africa to share their best practices for climate adaptation action through their work. 

In 2024, GCA is organizing six thematic Youth Adaptation Forums based on adaptation areas prioritized by young people; Young Women Leadership for Adaptation, Water, Climate-resilient Agriculture, Nature-based Solutions, Youth Entrepreneurship, Adaptation Jobs, and Finance and Locally Led Adaptation.  
 
The Youth Adaptation Forums bring together young people, governments, civil society, practitioners, international organizations, and decision-makers to mobilize adaptation solutions led by young people.
