Climate Justice Camp-Lebanon
I will present my participation in the Climate Justice Camp in Lebanon, I was nominated by the Arab Youth Sustainable Development Network (AYSDN) to represent my country, Yemen, and to convey our voices as young people about the most important environmental issues in Yemen and what interventions and procedures are necessary to adapt to climate change and mitigate its effects. The camp included about more than 400 participants, male and female, from 100 countries. The attendees, male and female, participated in 100 interactive workshops, told stories, exchanged experiences, built networks, developed strategies, and much more. The concept of climate justice came from the climate changes that the world is experiencing today as a result of economic activities that greatly affect the climate situation. The countries of the Global South live in climate injustice resulting from changes for which historical responsibility is borne by global companies, most of which are based in the countries of the North. Therefore, climate justice emerged to address the root causes. To social injustice, environmental devastation and economic domination. Therefore, the concept of social justice seeks to achieve an environmental and social balance to enhance justice and equality for all, whether in the present or in the future.
