1. A 15-year-old Scottish student who wrote a global report on climate change to guide people on how to face climate threats.
2. A 30-year-old young Chinese composer, who in collaboration with youth and children, created pieces of music calling human attention to the climate change crisis by impacted animals and nature.
3. A 15-year-old student from Taiwan designed a picture book on the impact of climate change and launched an online climate campaign to encourage his peers to take climate action.

5. 10-15 years old students from China, the United Kingdom, and France organized a project study group to conduct research on climate change, which has been developed into an online campaign to spread their climate messages to their peers.
Host Organization
25onehundred- CLIMA Youth Fund
Climate finance is an underestimated subject in the climate space. Our organization believes that sustainable solutions need investment to grow and access to finance and the role of finance is key to advancing climate action. We utilize ACE's element such as Climate change Education and public awareness to build capacity and knowledge around climate finance.
