Our Youth Speak Up

About This Collection

Let's hear from our children, and their advocates, on the social, environmental, cultural, and economic concerns around sustainability and the call to always act responsibly and with the next seven generations in mind. The collection will also feature, from time to time, adults who are speaking on behalf of children.

Emotional Responses to the Climate Crisis: BYA Youth Perspectives
February 05, 2026
On January 29, 2026, the New Leaders Initiative hosted a conversation with 2025 BYA alum Inaam Chattha about how he founded a safe space for youth struggling with climate anxiety and 2025 BYA alum Kyle Trefny about how he transformed his fear of fire to a relationship of adaptation and coexistence as a firefighter. This virtual panel was facilitated by BYA alum Jess Rimington who launched One World Youth.
