Decolonizing Climate Finance from the Ground Up
This panel will discuss how youth from the Global South are decolonizing and transforming climate finance by challenging traditional structures and power dynamics. Through concrete experiences from Indigenous, community-based, and global funds, as well as youth organizations, the conversation will explore pathways to redistribute power, remove access barriers, and place young people at the center of decision-making. The session aims to strengthen alliances between youth and philanthropy, making financing more just, accessible, and rooted in local territories and knowledge.
