Commonwealth Youth Climate Network 2022 #YouthLeadSDG14 Action Challenge

The Commonwealth Secretary-General and the Commonwealth Youth Climate Change Network (CYCN) launched a global competition to inspire, empower and reward young people taking action on oceans.

SDG14 emphasises how important conserving and sustainably using oceans, seas and marine resources is to the health of individuals, communities, nations and the planet.

Climate change is a huge threat to these environments - particularly in the Commonwealth where 49 of the 56 member countries have coastlines - making youth action vital to its protection for future generations to come.
