Leave no Child and Youth behind in DRR and Climate Action | World Vision

The children and youth of the Philippines do not bear responsibility for the climate crisis but suffer disproportionately from disasters. Nonetheless, they have demonstrated their capacity to become agents and catalysts of resilience and climate justice in support of the Sendai Framework and the Paris Agreement and have enumerated their commitments and recommendations through their Consolidated Statements on Disaster Risk Reduction and Management during the National Children and Youth Consultation event.

Their Statement formed part of the Children and Youth Stakeholders Ministerial Statement presented at the Asia-Pacific Ministerial Conference on Disaster Risk Reduction held on October 15, 2024.

Humanity Inclusion, Lungsod ng Makati, Plan International, Save the Children, UNICEF, and World Vision organized the National Children and Youth Consultation event that was previously held last July 2024.
