Hemavathi of @LossDamageYouth highlighting a participatory grants making process for youth
The @CJRFund issue grants for *addressing* #LossAndDamage, *to* young people directly
When giving grants to young people, the decision-makers are also going to be young people 🙌
#COP27
Operationalising the #SantiagoNetwork is learning how to use that life jacket
To address #LossAndDamage negotiators must talk about #LossAndDamageFinance & Santiago Network & ensure both happen at #COP27
Otherwise we fail on #ClimateJustice
Analogy by Hemavathi @LossDamageYouth
The #climatecrisis is like a ✈️ that is crashing *but* you have a life jacket
The #LossAndDamageFinance Facility is the life jacket in #COP27 negotiation terms
But if you don’t know how to or where to use the finance it’s useless- just like not knowing how to use a life jacket
At #COP27, children and youth are calling for an:
✅ intersectional
✅ youth-centred
✅ gender equality
approach to addressing and financing #LossAndDamage
Support their recommendations 👇👇👇
@PlanGlobal stands together with youth in calling for intergenerational equity, climate justice and #LossAndDamageFinance now
