Young voices shaping a climate-ready future
Young people in Uganda are not waiting for change — they are leading it. Across Uganda, youth and grassroots communities are responding to climate change with practical solutions: restoring degraded ecosystems, promoting climate-smart agriculture, innovating in clean energy, advocating for climate justice, and mobilizing their peers in schools and communities.
Why This Summit Matters
Uganda’s young population is increasingly experiencing the direct impacts of climate change — erratic rainfall, flooding, biodiversity loss, and livelihood disruptions. While youth-led climate initiatives continue to grow, structured platforms for meaningful engagement between grassroots youth and policymakers remain limited. The Toto Climate Summit 2026 is designed to bridge this divide — creating a shared space for dialogue, collaboration, and co-creation of solutions.
What participants will do
Through interactive sessions, panels, innovation showcases, and collaborative workshops, participants will:
- Engage in structured intergenerational dialogue on climate governance.
- Build skills in policy advocacy, resource mobilization, and stakeholder engagement.
- Showcase youth-led climate innovations.
- Co-develop and present the Toto Climate Declaration 2026 — a collective youth position to inform policy and action.
Beyond the Summit: Sustaining Momentum
The Toto Climate Summit 2026 is not a one-day event — it is the foundation of a sustained movement. Post-summit follow-up will include establishment of a Central Uganda Youth Climate Network, quarterly virtual engagements among participants, mentorship linkages, and publication of a summit report.
