BONUS: Faces of COP29 - Samira Ben Ali, World’s Youth for Climate Justice

About this episode

The episode features Samira Ben Ali discussing the outcomes and criticisms from COP29 in Baku, Azerbaijan.

With COP30 less than a month away, we’re taking a look at last year’s meeting of the parties in Baku, Azerbaijan, where organizations, governments, and activists gathered to debate, negotiate, and hammer out a collective global vision for climate action. Our Faces of COP series took the pulse — and, at times, captured the scathing criticism — of all the many different stakeholders at this meeting. In this clip, we hear from Samira Ben Ali, representing World’s Youth for Climate Justice (WY4CJ).
