Across the globe, young leaders have stepped forward for the Youth Climate Adaptation Action Day to shape how nations plan, finance, and deliver climate adaptation. Building on the Guide to Organizing Youth Consultations on Nationally Determined Contributions and National Adaptation Plans, this report captures the strategic insights emerging from youth-led consultations around the world. These insights can strengthen national policies and drive global action on adaptation.

From Asia to Africa, from Europe to the Americas, young people are united in their call for better adaptation financing, stronger inclusion in decision-making, and more effective pathways to a resilient and just future. Their voices reveal what works, what’s missing, and what must change to meet the urgency of this moment.
