Why attend
Join a dynamic youth-led debate where bold ideas meet diverse perspectives. Experience the energy of 1 vs 20 as participants challenge, reframe, and co-create a Youth Manifesto for Nature-Positive Economies—spotlighting innovation, equity, and intergenerational collaboration for the future of conservation.
Session Description
This dynamic youth-led session transforms the popular “1 vs 20” debate format into a platform for conservation dialogue. One bold youth protagonist will defend the stance that “by 2035, nature-positive economies must be the global default,” while 20 diverse peers challenge, question, and reframe the vision in real time. Through quick-fire reactions, mini-debates, and collective re-design, participants will co-create a Youth Manifesto for Nature-Positive Economies. The format ensures inclusivity, energy, and authentic youth voice placing resilience, biodiversity, and equity at the heart of future economies.Organised by
