COP26 Youth Hub

The Youth Hub will be a space for workshops and skill sharing, but also for rest and relaxation during a time when climate burnout, fatigue and anxiety are likely to be rife. The full lineup is still to be released, but attendees can expect workshops on campaign skills, climate change and mental health, jargon busting and more. These events will be run partly by the host organisations, Glasgow University Environmental Sustainability Team (GUEST), Young Friends of the Earth Scotland (YFOES), the UK Youth Climate Coalition (UKYCC), The Resilience Project, and partly by guest speakers.

There will also be a full roster of online events for activists across the world. Some of these will be workshops, and others will be social events.

Please note that the Youth Hub is aimed at the young people of Glasgow and visiting activists within the 16 to 30 age range. There are a huge amount of exciting events occurring during the COP so the organiser asks that you keep this a place where young people feel able to share their thoughts. Attendees under 16 need to be accompanied by an adult, and parents should understand that the topics discussed will often be of a serious nature.
