This milestone year and groundbreaking work calls for an Impact Report.
We are excited to share Powering Youth Climate Justice with you.
We share our goals—our trust in science, children, and democracy. Our vision to scale litigation, advance democracy, and recognize children’s rights. And the cases and decisions that culminated in a climate victory in Held v. State of Montana. Climate science permeates our work—from the courtroom in Helena, Montana to Strasbourg, France. Youth-powered litigation on behalf of children sets the precedent for climate action and powers our global docket.
