With #COP29 starting soon in Baku from 11-22 November, the Green Jobs for youth pact will be there amplifying youth voices in advocating for green jobs and skills development in a side event titled "Green Dreams Are Made of This: Creating a Sustainable Future With and For Young People."
Date: November 11th at 11:30 UTC+4,
Venue: Just Transition Pavilion in the Blue Zone
The event will focus on expanding green job opportunities for youth and accelerating the shift toward a sustainable economy.
The second part of the event will be youth-centred, highlighting young people’s experiences in the labour market, especially the challenges and opportunities they face with green jobs. We'll also focus on young people's aspirations, the key issues they are advocating for, and the partnerships they hope to see for a sustainable economy, with specific examples from various countries.
Parneet Kaur, founder of Poetry for Planet, will moderate and perform during the event as well.
We are going to be streaming on ILO LIVE.
