The IYCN Agents of Change program aims to send a delegation of Indian Young people to the U.N. Climate Negotiations, with the next one being Conference of Parties 15 (COP 15) in Copenhagen, Denmark. The applicants are chosen from a highly qualified pool and our delegates should represent the diversity, enthusiasm, and skill of the budding youth climate movement in India. Hailing from both urban centers as well as rural areas, these dynamic Agents will strive to engage government delegations from around the world in policy, help build consensus amongst civil society groups and assist in the construction of a global youth climate network. These are the future climate leaders that India will look to in the years ahead.
