" Global climate policy must incorporate the languages, contexts, and people's experiences of the global south. Young people are trying to create a more people-centric climate discourse that acknowledges the inequality in impact and representation through collective action and re-imagining current systems. Such approaches must be given more space in big forums and in policy-making. "
