We're aiming to paint over a dozen ground murals across the country to show our MPs the power and vision of a Youth Climate Corps. Join us as we send MPs back to Parliament with a mandate to fight for a YCC.
This day of action is held by the Climate Emergency Unit with support from the Small Change Fund.
About the YCC campaign:
We are building a movement for a new public program to employ thousands of young people in good, green work.
Imagine a brash and transformative new public program: one that puts thousands of young people to work reducing greenhouse gas emissions and strengthening communities…
A program that trains workers to build new renewable energy projects, protect biodiversity, and retrofit our buildings so we can live in dignity and safety, and take care of each other as we face the unprecedented.
As young people, we deserve nothing less than good, green work, a living wage and access to union representation. And we know that true climate solutions must enshrine and prioritize leadership, sovereignty and decision-making of Indigenous Nations.
We believe that we need a new, massive job program that invests in true, transformative climate solutions that are rooted in justice and equity.
That’s why we are fighting for a national Youth Climate Corps.
