Young people are at the forefront of resilience-building activities related to the water and climate crises. This workshop will utilise a customised card game designed by young people to showcase youth solutions on resilience-building, while facilitating interactive discussions between youth and other stakeholders. By the end of this workshop, participants will gain a more concrete and multi-faceted understanding on the adoption and implementation of proposed solutions leading up to the UN 2023 Water Conference.
