SUMMARY:The Canadian Youth Climate Assembly: deliberative democracy in action
DESCRIPTION:On September 21st more than 20 Parliamentarians gathered in the Senate Chamber to hear the recommendations of the Canadian Youth Climate Assembly  — the first national citizens’ assembly on climate change in Canada, and the first anywhere in the world designed specifically for young adults aged 18–25. Over five days in Ottawa, 33 young Canadians selected through a civic lottery deliberated for 35 hours on how Canada can meet its climate commitments in ways that reflect the values and priorities of their generation. Drawn from nearly 700 applicants, members represented every region and the full socio-demographic diversity of Canada.   You will hear directly from youth participants about this historic event in the Senate, and how Parliamentarians will address the Canadian Youth Climate Assembly’s recommendations.  Democratic events like this are key for citizen participation in addressing climate change.
