@PublicInno is excited to serve as the delivery partner for the @BloombergDotOrg Youth Climate Action Fund expansion to 300 cities with our colleagues @c40cities and @uclg_org. Together, we will support cities and mayors committed to meaningful youth engagement in climate action.

[Bloomberg Philanthropies @BloombergDotOrg]

Because of the Youth Climate Action Fund, hundreds of thousands of young people no longer see their local governments as a barrier—but as a partner in solving the issues they care most about.

That’s why we’re tripling down.

By expanding to 300 new city halls, even more young people will work alongside mayors and local leaders to deliver visible improvements in their communities—advancing climate solutions and improving quality of life worldwide.

In a world where parties, prime ministers, and presidents have long dominated the global stage, the spotlight is increasingly turning to a new group of leaders: mayors. As mayors continue to stand on the frontlines of our biggest challenges, we need to make sure they have the right tools and resources to succeed: https://t.co/7G4gIjhPea
