From 6-8 November 2025, the Climate Justice Activism Summit gathered participants from the Nordic and Baltic regions in Malmö, Sweden, to engage in focused discussions around climate justice activism within the Nordic region and beyond. The summit, which was granted funding from the Norden 0-30 programme, aimed to create long-term value by helping young activists think more strategically and by empowering them to drive systemic change more effectively.

With 72 young activists in total, a significant portion of the time was dedicated to strategic planning, where the participants developed, discussed, and refined strategies for future actions. The summit also discussed other important topics, including mental health in activism, repression, storytelling, and imagining futures.

Before the summit, the project organizers held local workshops for the activists in Denmark, Sweden, Norway, and online, which discussed what barriers they face in their activism. The input from the workshops worked as a basis for developing the program for the summit.

The summit was organized by cirka cph, ReGeneration 2030, SwIdeas AB, and Natur og Ungdom. It was held at STPLN in the heart of Malmö, Sweden.
