People Led LT-LEDs
Shaping Bangladesh’s low-carbon future with people at the center
People-Led LT-LEDS is Youth for NDCs’ initiative to contribute to Bangladesh’s Long-Term Low Emission Development Strategy through youth, academic, sectoral, and community engagement.
The project works to ensure that long-term climate planning is not limited to technical discussions, but also reflects the realities of young people, communities, workers, students, vulnerable groups, and institutions that will be directly affected by the transition.
Supported by the German Embassy Dhaka, the project focuses on building awareness, generating recommendations, and creating knowledge products that can inform Bangladesh’s long-term low-carbon development pathway.
What We Want to Achieve
Through People-Led LT-LEDS, Youth for NDCs aims to:
- Create public understanding of LT-LEDS and why long-term climate planning matters
- Generate youth and people-centered recommendations for Bangladesh’s low-carbon future
- Engage universities and young people in technical climate policy discussions
- Bring sectoral actors together to discuss long-term transition pathways
- Connect LT-LEDS with NDC implementation, just transition, green jobs, energy transition, and vulnerable communities
- Produce knowledge products that make LT-LEDS easier to understand and act on
Planned Activities and Outputs
Long-term climate planning will shape Bangladesh’s development pathway for decades. Decisions made today can either create a low-carbon, resilient, and inclusive future — or lock communities into systems that increase vulnerability.
People-Led LT-LEDS works to make sure that young people and communities have a voice in shaping that future.
