Journey to the Summit of the Future - Episode 6 - Can Multilateralism Solve the Climate Crisis?

Episode 6 of the Journey to the Summit of the Future features Aneschka Berchtold, Swiss Youth Representative to the United Nations, and political science student engaged in climate activism and gender issues. 

Can multilateralism solve the climate crisis? How can we better understand and take action on the intersection of climate and gender? In this conversation, Aneschka shares her views on whether multilateral climate action is working, and what it will take to ensure youth can actively participate in climate policy-making and governance. She also speaks about the critical need for a feminist climate justice approach, and what she hopes will be achieved at the Summit of the Future.
