There is no doubt on climate change evidence. It is clear that there is a climate emergency that put millions of people in a risky situation, and the most vulnerable population suffers the most. In order to raise awareness on this topic, Ayuda en Acción presents 1Planet4All, a project aimed to encourage youth action as citizens against the climate change. We propose this 1'5h workshop addressed to young people between 18 and 35 years old for discuss, inform, raise awareness, and provide the participants some answers on current climate and social challenges.
