The Middle East Institute (MEI) and the North African Policy Initiative (NAPI) are pleased to announce the second in a series of roundtable discussions inviting engaged Libyan youth to share their perspective on the key issues facing their country’s future.
This event will feature a number of NAPI’s Young Policy Leaders Program fellows and NAPI affiliates, who will discuss their research on the wide-ranging impacts of climate change on the formal and informal economies, social fabric, and political landscape in Libya. The speakers will delve into questions surrounding the implications of a changing climate on the future of climate-related migration, food and water insecurity, and economic development. The roundtable participants will also address the role of the international community, the expectations and activism of North African youth on this issue, and the prospects for a more global effort to put climate action at the top of the political agenda.
