LDYC’s Reflection on IPCC’s Climate Change 2023: Synthesis Report

The Loss and Damage Youth Coalition is happy to announce the release of its reflection on the IPCC’s recent report released in March 2023. The IPCC finalized the Synthesis Report for the Sixth Assessment Report during the Panel’s 58th Session held in Interlaken, Switzerland, from 13 – 19 March 2023. The Synthesis Report is based on the content of the three Working Groups Assessment Reports: WGI – The Physical Science Basis, WGII – Impacts, Adaptation and Vulnerability, WGIII – Mitigation of Climate Change, and the three Special Reports: Global Warming of 1.5°C, Climate Change and Land, The Ocean, and Cryosphere in a Changing Climate.

This reflection captures LDYC’s thoughts on the way forward based on the insights and guides from the report alongside lived experiences of youths within the Coalition. You can access the complete reflection below and download it at the bottom of the document.
