The 2025 United Nations Climate Change Conference — COP30 — is taking place in Belém, Brazil, from 10 to 21 November 2025. In the lead-up to the conference, the coalition developed and launched a comprehensive set of youth-driven demands, which gathered more than 16,000 signatures from young people and global citizens around the world.
To deepen understanding of these policy asks, we launched the Stories Catalogue for COP30 — a collection of real stories that bring the demands to life. These stories demonstrate that our demands are not abstract policy proposals, but reflections of the lived experiences and urgent needs of frontline communities. They serve as a powerful reminder to decision-makers: every policy ask represents a human story, a struggle, and a call for justice.
