Climate Action Cohorts
What is CAC?
Focused on building climate leaders, the CAC brings together 10 Canadian youth alumni each year to bridge the gaps between policy decisions, community action and youth engagement. Through team retreats, independent project implementation and attendance at COP, each cohort will learn about climate change policy, leadership and project development, and be empowered and supported in the design and implementation of community projects.
