The Environmental Protection Agency of Liberia (EPA) and partners including Youth Civic Leadership and Environmental Studies (CYCLES) and the United Nations Development Program (UNDP) held a two-day summit beginning on May 31, 2021, ahead of Liberia's National Conference on Environment and Climate Change. This summit was intended to advance youth decisions and input through an integrated approach on key international conventions, agreements, and national policies on climate change.
“The summit is inspired by the huge challenge that Climate Change poses to national growth and human development as wells the above gaps identified which limits the active participation and robust contribution of young people,” EPA Executive Director, Prof. Wilson K. Tarpeh said.
