Last month, I was invited to speak at the @un_ece (ESD) in Limassol, Cyprus, I was there representing the Green Jobs for Youth Pact supported by @ilo @unicef and @unep !

I spoke about what it will take to create a JUST transition, Education is a pivotal part of plugging the gaps that we know exist,
we have no excuses to continue creating a workforce riddled with injustice.

🌍 Our generation stands at the crossroads of history, facing challenges that demand collective action. And it was invaluable to see and meet so many incredible people and share platform with young people all echoing the same message.

We are done asking for change, we are now doing it ourselves!

🙌🏾 Special thanks to my team Amy Padfield from @sosukcharity and Ridwaan Yousuf from @SomalisforSust for your support and contributions to the work. For more details on the forum’s outcomes, visit https://t.co/fJdfOByALB.
