So, can you share with us your story of how did you become a nature ambassador?</p> <p><strong>[0:54 - 2:59]</strong> You are currently part of the youth committee participating in COP 26, for our listeners who are not familiar with COP 26, Conference of Parties is when governments, NGOs, trade unions, businesses, and everyone else with an interest in climate change meet to review and negotiate global action and this year marks the 26th year, a determining year. We have entered a sensitive decade, basically the decade of action because it's our last chance to achieve climate mitigation. In your opinion, why do you think it’s important for youth to be part of the decision-making process and have a platform to engage in and safely share their thoughts?</p> <p><strong>[3:00 - 4:40]</strong> *Recently,* there was a proposal submitted by youth to COP 26.

So, how do you describe the response to climate change has been like in the middle east with all the unfortunate circumstances going around and the limited abilities that these countries entail? How can we improve our infrastructure and build a more concrete framework that can effectively combat environmental change and reduce its consequences?</p> <p><strong>[12:52 - 14:38]</strong> Finally, would you like to give advice for our listeners today, particularly youth that is demanding that their voices be heard?</p> <p>---<br> <a href="https://www.instagram.com/ecohousepod/" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">EcoHouse</a> is a youth-led project powered by <a href="https://www.gybn.org/" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">the Global Youth Biodiversity Network (GYBN)</a> and <a href="https://www.unmgcy.org/" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">the Major Group for Children and Youth </a>(MGCY) that aims for spreading awareness about the <a href="https://www.unmgcy.org/for-nature" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Youth Manifesto</a> and educating youth about how important their voice and action is in advocating for the environment and conservation efforts mainly in the Middle East and North Africa region.</p> <p>We aspire to do this through this podcast by creating an inclusive community for not only nature enthusiasts but also individuals who seek positive change and aim to be part of it.</p>
