Making Bangladesh’s Climate Policies Youth-Centric, People-Oriented & Vulnerable-Friendly

Youth for NDCs is a Bangladesh-focused youth-led platform working to bridge young people, communities, vulnerable groups, and climate policy spaces.

Founded in 2024, we work to make Bangladesh’s climate policies more inclusive, accountable, evidence-based, and grounded in people’s realities. Through consultations, policy dialogues, fellowships, campaigns, research, and partnerships, we create pathways for young people to meaningfully contribute to national climate policy processes- from NDCs and LT-LEDS to gender, climate finance, just transition, and implementation planning.
