Preparation for COP28 - 1st National Youth Forum on climate change - Angola
Join here:
The founder of Startup Talentos Multiplus, Sofonie Dala attended the 1st National Youth Forum on climate change - preparation for COP28
The National Youth Forum on Climate Change took place on the 18th and 19th of October 2023, where Sofonie Dala participated as an active voice of Angolan youth.
The topics discussed there were so familiar to the Female Entrepreneur that made her feel like a fish swimming in the sea. Sofonie Dala made significant contributions to this forum, she actively participated in discussions, shared her knowledge and projects focused on empowering girls, mitigating climate change and achieving the SDGs.
Furthermore, she also shone on stage by answering the SDG quiz with excellence.
Hello world, I’m Sofonie Dala.
We are taking part in the 1st National Youth Forum on Climate Change.
Here we are witnessing young people having their voices heard, participating in discussions, workshops, round tables and quizzes as their ideas, opinions, thoughts and innovative solutions will be part of the report that Angola will present at COP28, which will soon take place in Dubai.
We also discussed gender equality and women’s empowerment and how climate change negatively affects girls.
These are very important and interesting topics that were debated here and we hope that this is not the first nor the last forum of this nature, we hope that there will be more forums and that more young people will have the opportunity to participate.
As Startup, we had the opportunity to share our Ladies without Plastic project, we talked about the importance of women starting to use reusable menstrual hygiene products with the aim of stopping polluting the environment.
The plastic menstrual pads we use can cause serious damage to the environment, and take thousands of years to decompose.
Our idea was welcomed and many liked it. So there is a huge need to end the bureaucracy that has been preventing startups from taking their ideas further. We ask governments and all entities to stop placing obstacles in young people’s initiatives, because young people are the engines of change.
The event was marked by round tables where young people were able to delve deeper into various topics such as: The impact of climate change on young people;
Employment, entrepreneurship and green skills and climate engagement.
The event that brought together several young people was organized by the Ministry of Environment and Youth and Sports with the support of UNICEF, and is part of a set of activities that Angola carries out in preparation for COP28.
