The event will open with remarks by Minister of Climate and the Environment Sari Multala, followed by a presentation of the report’s findings and proposed solutions, as well as messages from participatory girls themselves. Thereafter, a panel consisting of Members of Parliament will explore the responsibilities and opportunities of Nordic policymakers in addressing these global challenges.
The event Storm Warning – Girls’ Rights in a Warming World examines the challenges posed by the climate crisis for girls living in regions particularly vulnerable to extreme weather events, as well as solutions through which Finland can help improve their situation. The global research study Change her Forecast draws on the experiences of more than 5,000 girls and young women across five countries (Bangladesh, Kenya, Peru, Senegal and Zimbabwe), alongside a data analysis spanning over 50 countries and three decades.
We warmly welcome you!
