Locally-led action is the key to resilience!From flood-hit districts, youth volunteers, Indigenous leaders & women responders are bridging critical gaps in emergency assistance. Their leadership proves that community-driven solutions are vital in this escalating climate crisis.

As #COP31 approaches, global climate policy is placing greater emphasis on men and boys, linking gender norms, power, care and accountability to a truly #JustTransition.

UPDATE: Police have arrested another group of youths from Rooted in Resistance after they attempted to march to Parliament to deliver a petition calling for reforms in petroleum policies and investment priorities. The arrests follow a similar unsuccessful attempt on August 10, which led to the arrest of four youths. In their petition, the youth are calling on Parliament to also redirect national resources towards productive sectors capable of generating sustainable and widely shared wealth.

WATCH: Drama unfolded at Parliament this morning as police arrested several youth activists from Rooted in Resistance during a march to deliver a petition demanding reforms over what they say are unanswered demands from August 10.
The demonstration caused heavy traffic along Parliament Avenue and other roads leading to Parliament, with limited access to the area.
