Contract

This is a UNV contract. More about UNV contracts.

The Youth Empowerment in Climate Action Platform (YECAP) was established by UNDP in Asia and the Pacific in collaboration with UNFCCC RCC Asia and the Pacific, UNICEF East Asia and the Pacific, UNICEF South Asia, British Council, YOUNGO, Movers Programme, and 2030 Youth Force in response to young people across the region calling for urgent action on the climate agenda. Youth in all their diverse identities and experiences advance their climate journeys with the support from YECAP to meaningfully engage in action, advocacy, and acceleration of the movement towards a just climate future.

Ekota is an open, interactive consultation platform that allows young people to share their views and see what their peers think. Unlike traditional “marathon” surveys, it is transparent, engaging, and community-driven. Insights gathered through Ekota will feed into the Vietnamese Youth Statement at LCOY 2025 and the Global Youth Statement at COP30, amplifying youth voices from local to international levels.
