“Children are the future custodians of mountains, and empowering their role through education to be the main actors in addressing climate change is essential,” said Sara Manuelli of the Mountain Partnership Secretariat during a United Nations Climate Change Conference satellite event.

Hosted by the University of Glasgow, the event on 4 November 2021 saw the launch of the call to action “Mountains: the water towers of our world – Children’s call to action to protect mountain areas against the impacts of climate change”, promoted by the Zero Water Day Partnership with support from the Mountain Partnership.
