MANILA\u00a0— The National Youth Commission (NYC) aims to form a national pool of about 80 youth negotiators on climate change as it concluded in Metro Manila the Luzon leg of its youth workshop Friday.<\/p>\n

The pool of youth negotiators, which will be the first of its kind in the country, would join the official Philippine delegation to international climate negotiations.<\/p>\n

“They’ll help voice out Filipino youth’s concerns regarding the changing climate,” said presidential staff officer Dennis Mendoza of NYC, which is spearheading the pool’s creation.<\/p>\n

Allowing the youth to increasingly express such concerns will enable the international community to better understand climate change’s adverse impacts on the Philippines, he said.<\/p>\n

Such understanding, Mendoza added, is essential in helping bring forth climate change adaptation and mitigation support for the country.<\/p>\n

The group\u2019s creation is in line with NYC’s youth in climate action project, he said.<\/p>\n

NYC’s just-concluded workshop featured lectures on the basics of climate change and disaster risk reduction and management. It also included training on climate change negotiating, Mendoza noted.<\/p>\n

He said the workshop’s participants formed seven groups that conducted respective discussions on climate change-related issues.<\/p>\n

“Each group’s designated chief negotiator and delegation head will be part of the youth pool,” he said at the sideline of the workshop.<\/p>\n

NYC and its partners will evaluate other participants’ performance during the workshop to determine who to include in the pool.<\/p>\n

He said NYC’s partners in the undertaking are Department of Environment and Natural Resources, Climate Change Commission, advocacy group The Climate Reality Project, and Yes Pinoy Foundation.<\/p>\n

NYC, he added, will also spearhead the workshop in the Visayas and Mindanao this year.<\/p>\n

The Visayas and Mindanao legs will be from Aug. 24 to 25 in Leyte and Oct. 4 to 5 in Saranggani province, respectively, he said.<\/p>\n

Around 22 outstanding participants from each of the workshops in Luzon, the Visayas, and Mindanao will comprise the national pool of youth negotiators.<\/p>\n

The remaining slots will be for representatives of UNICEF and NGOs. NYC and its partners will provide the pool more intensified training on climate change negotiations, Mendoza added.<\/p>\n

The training’s target schedule is from Nov. 24 to Nov. 25 this year as part of the National Day for Youth in Climate Action celebration.<\/p>\n
