British Council of Pakistan in collaboration with the Higher Education Commission has launched Pakistan Youth Leadership Initiative and Digital Learning Portal to support the Green Youth Movement project.

The project aims to empower young women and men across Pakistan with the necessary skills and knowledge to combat climate action.

Under the initiative, a cohort of 290,000 youth from universities and communities will be trained for the Climate Action curriculum.

Among them, 60,000 young individuals will undergo specialized training under the Prime Minister’s Green Youth Movement.

These trained youth will then take their knowledge and skills back to their communities, spearheading Youth Led Climate Actions engaging in policy dialogue and advocacy, participating in national and international climate events, and showcasing their successful projects.
