ABOUT US

 WE ARE IN A CLIMATE CRISIS REQUIRING URGENT ACTION.

 OUR GENERATION WILL BE THE MOST AFFECTED  

 BY DECISIONS MADE TODAY IN CLIMATE POLICIES.  

 
OUR GOALS

  • Advocate for pragmatic, responsible, and ambitious climate policies  at the national and international level.

​

  • Raise awareness  about the emergency of the climate crisis and about the importance of local and global actions.

​

  • Mobilize the population, in particular the young generation, in favor of the ecological transition.

​

  • Take part in international climate conferences as Swiss civil society representatives. 

Be part of the movement!

 

Swiss Youth for Climate is always looking for motivated individuals to join our community. Membership is open to all people under the age of 35 that have a relation to Switzerland. Even youth organisations can become members provided that they share the objectives of the organisation.

 

The membership fee is CHF 15.- for individuals and CHF 20.- for legal entities. We encourage you to give the amount you think is fair. The membership fee and donations are used to run our basic operations and some of our projects.
