The UAE Pavilion at the COP28 programs on 8 December 2023 featured meetings in line with the global climate conference's “Youth, Children, Education and Skills” thematic day, with event discussions highlighting the importance of innovation and sharing knowledge to nourish future generations.
Key announcements and dialogues at the UAE Pavilion at COP28 on 8 December 2023 included:
AIM for Climate is a joint initiative of the United Arab Emirates and the United States, which seeks to address climate change and global hunger by uniting participants to significantly increase support for climate-smart agriculture and food systems innovation in the 5-year span (2021-2025).
During a media briefing following the discussion, Her Excellency Mariam highlighted the inextricable link between food, health and climate and the importance of innovation in facilitating change around the world. Secretary Vilsack talked about how food and agriculture can also transform other sectors, including transportation and construction, by providing low-carbon fuel and turning methane into concrete.
Both government officials gave examples of providing assistance to farmers and smallholders in their countries and reducing risks in adopting technologies associated with change, confirming that communication and upskilling are key.
Alongside the thoughtful dialogue and key announcements in the UAE pavilion at COP28, the Actionists Hub, located in the Green Zone, also hosted a series of important conversations on climate innovation and education, and ways to empower future generations. Key sessions included; Climate Communications 101 for Youth Leaders, where Allison Agsten, director of the USC Annenberg Center for Climate Journalism and Communication, provided practical skills training for young people to communicate on climate change topics; Green skills training for youth empowerment in the fight against climate change: green businesses and jobs hosted by Majra National CSR Fund, where a panel focused on youth empowerment and explored the benefits of green skills and jobs; and a TEDx-style presentation on intergenerational justice and today's youth by the United Nations Secretary-General Youth Climate Advisory.
