This session is centered on empowering people to identify and determine their Local RE campaigns and projects. Discover Asia's potential for Renewable Energy and success stories of people on adapting and mitigating the impacts of the climate crisis. Get to know nearby potential renewable energy sources, and how to use them as collective sustainable power sources of the people, by the people, and for the people.

The session will focus on exploring the concept of just transitions in the context of Asian communities, with a specific emphasis on member engagement and leadership development. It will provide insights into strategies, challenges, and successes related to fostering active participation and climate leadership, offering practical takeaways for promoting sustainable and inclusive climate action in the region. The aim of the session is to educate and inspire young advocates and community leaders about the principles of just transitions, particularly in the context of Asian communities, while showcasing real-world applications.

Many false solutions are being implemented in South Asia (and beyond), resulting in communities not reaping benefits and these solutions failing to address the root of the climate crisis. Real solutions are founded upon the principles of climate justice, ensuring that the needs of the people are met through just and equitable transition, along with adequate climate finance. This session's objective is to take a step forward in cultivating an informed and critical mass of youth in South Asia who can actively monitor and advocate against false solutions to the climate crisis.
