YNA Young Negotiators

Getting to the negotiating table is only possible if you can get there. Your donation funds travel and accommodation grants that enable young negotiators from around the world to attend COP and other key sessions.

This is how we tackle the underrepresentation of young people in global decision-making: not just by training them, but by ensuring they can show up, take their seat, and be heard.

YNA Operations

YNA "hotspot" at COP30, 2025

Behind every young negotiator is a dedicated team making it all possible. Your donation helps sustain the core team salaries, technology, and administrative systems that keep YNA running day to day.

Without a strong operational foundation, none of our programmes, community, or advocacy work could exist. This stream supports the infrastructure that powers everything we do.

Your donation helps train youth as environmental negotiators. Here’s how.

As I reflect on my experience with the Land Youth Negotiators Program (LYNP) at COP 16, I am filled with a sense of pride, gratitude, and purpose. Being part of the LYNP team was a transformative experience that equipped me with the skills, knowledge, and confidence to navigate the complex world of negotiations.

Through LYNP's comprehensive training program, I learned how to effectively advocate for Land action, navigate the pressures of negotiations, and identify loopholes in the system. But what struck me most was the sense of community and solidarity that we built as young negotiators. For the first time, we had a voice, and we were determined to use it to make a difference.

The experience was not without its challenges, but with the guidance of our mentors, we learned how to manage our emotions, build our presence in the audience, and collaborate with other youths from diverse backgrounds. We formed bonds that went beyond our roles as negotiators, and we became each other's backbone, supporting and encouraging each other every step of the way.

One of the most significant takeaways from my experience with LYNP was the realization that, as youths, we are not alone in this fight. We are part of a global community that is committed to creating a more sustainable future. And with that knowledge comes a sense of responsibility, a sense of purpose, and a sense of determination to make a difference.

As I look back on my journey with LYNP, I am filled with gratitude for the friendships, connections, and knowledge that I gained. I am grateful for the opportunity to be part of a community that is shaping the future of our planet. And I am grateful for the experience that has equipped me with the skills, knowledge, and confidence to continue advocating for environmental action.

Thank you, LYNP, for empowering my voice and for giving me the opportunity to be part of something bigger than myself."

"Thanks to the Youth Negotiators Academy Program and to the support of CARE Denmark, I spent five intense months in the fundamentals Cohort learning about UNFCCC negotiation processes and the role of youth in negotiations, as well as interacting with other youths from around the world, discussing COP 30 negotiations. The final in-person training was the last piece I needed; it left me empowered, informed, and ready to step confidently into the negotiation rooms of COP30. We were guided on how to navigate the UNFCCC portal to access COP agendas, reports, and negotiation texts, and we even carried out realistic negotiation simulations that brought the entire process to life."
