Primary Project Category:
How Project Affects Greenhouse Gas (GHG) Emissions:
['Reduces GHGs (e.g., projects that reduce sources of GHGs, such as through efficiency or other changes in consumption)']
Impact on Underrepresented Groups:
Our intervention directly involves the youth, who are considered to be a marginalized segment in climate actions in the context of India, even though the youth are key influencers in dietary patterns and domestic consumption to a great extent. Through the delivery of workshops and online campaigns, we are sensitizing the youth and making them influential actors in their domestic units by providing them with information on the climate and health effects of HFSS foods, warning labels, and plastic packaging through them, resulting in a multiplier effect as women in the domestic units are key influencers in food decisions. We put the focus on the leadership of women in all aspects of the design, implementation, and completion of projects, starting with workshops to plan projects to co-creating content and executing digital campaigns. By doing so, we ensure that our interventions become inclusive through the contribution of less-represented groups in leadership, which enhances equity not only in climate engagement but also in demand-driven reduction of GHG, healthy eating, and sustainable lifestyle behaviors, hence proving how young people and women can be catalysts of scalable climate change solutions.
