How can we encourage more young people to participate in climate action?
As part of the London School of Economics and Political Science’s (LSE) research partnership with Hope for the Future over the last few months, a selection of LSE students conducted 44 interviews with young people from London and Sheffield to investigate this shift. This research aimed to explore how Hope for the Future can better support and mobilise young people to help to drive up their engagement in climate action. As the research intern compiling the findings from these interviews into a broader report, I had the opportunity to dig deep into what helped and hindered youth participation in climate action.
