Cheers Louise ***/Final call for applications for the UKYCC Delegation to the UN Climate Talks 2010/*** *** *Dear Coalition Members, Following the huge successes of the first ever youth delegation, in partnership with the Otesha Project to the UN climate talks in Poznan (Dec 2008), and to the the UKYCC delegation to Copenhagen (Dec 2009), *we're on the hunt for a group of young people from across the UK to go to the next major UN climate negotiations in Cancun, Mexico from 26th November - 10th December this year (COP16). *Supported, trained and accredited by the UKYCC, the UK Youth Delegation to Mexico will join other youth delegations from around the world in once again raising the vital voice of our generation to create real, ambitious, equitable and binding results at the UNFCCC . /"Joining the UKYCC delegation to the UN negotiations on climate change was one of the best things I've ever done."/ Emma Biermann, Co-Founder, UKYCC. Not only will this be an opportunity to engage with the talks taking place at the UN, but it will be one of the most valuable opportunities available to meet like-minded inspirational young people from around the world who are all united under the same cause. A life-changing few month, the delegation requires hard work, passion, energy and commitment, but repays many times over in the friends that are made, the skills and knowledge that are learned and the unique perspective and insight that is gained. Whether you grew up with campaigners for parents or you're fresh-faced and keen to explore something new, this is your chance - we hope to have a delegation from all walks of life!
