The Young Leaders' Summit on Northern Climate Change started in August of 2009, when 60 young Canadians gathered in Inuvik, Northwest Territories to discuss climate change, share their stories and build upon their leadership skills.
The Young Leaders' Summit happens every two years, and is hosted in different hubs of the three territories, including Inuvik, Yellowknife and Whitehorse.
The goal of the summit is to connect young leaders, ages 18 to 30, and to empower young people to tackle one of the greatest challenges our planet is facing today:
climate change.
