On October 26-27, 2024, the East African Youth Forum on Climate Justice convened at Ayla Hotel, Djibouti, under the high sponsorship of the Ministry of Environment and Sustainable Development. Organized by the One and Invisible Youth Movement of Djibouti with support from the United Nations System, the Pan-African Climate Justice Alliance (PACJA), and Social Change Factory, the forum gathered passionate young leaders from across East Africa to amplify their voices and actions for climate justice.
The event featured dynamic exchanges and inspiring interventions. Shampi Anna showcased Kenya’s Eco Rafiki project, a community-led initiative fostering environmental sustainability. Charles Mwangi, PACJA’s Director of Programs, highlighted impactful strategies and experiences from PACJA’s work across Africa in the fight against climate change.
This forum provided an essential platform for young changemakers to share experiences, foster collaboration, and strengthen their resolve to advocate for a sustainable and just future for Africa.
