he Youth Adaptation Forum on Climate-resilient Agriculture brought attention to the digital adaptation solutions developed by young people and their impact on smallholder farming. The Youth Adaptation Forum on Climate-resilient Agriculture raised awareness on the various initiatives which support climate-resilient agriculture and allowed young people to share their best practices for climate adaptation action through their work.
In 2024, GCA is organizing six Youth Adaptation Forums, with a special focus on African good practices, based upon 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 bringing together young people, governments, civil society, practitioners, international organizations, and decision-makers to mobilize and highlight adaptation solutions led by young people in Africa.
The Youth Adaptation Forums will culminate in a global Youth Climate Adaptation Action Day, where young people around the world will be encouraged to take adaptation action simultaneously.
