Agenda:
- Welcome (UN Youth): We are here to strengthen the heart of our work
- Grieving in Connection: Sharing stories to authentically connect with who's here, where we've come from, and what we're feeling
- Radical Reimagining: Going beyond our current limits of thinking, we'll tap creativity to cocreate possibilities of what can be, and how emotions can support us in sustainable sustainability
- Regenerative Planning: What might it look like and feel like to step forward building resilience between us as we embody purpose?
- Closing: What do we want for & from Climate of Emotions in 2025?

- While valuing and honoring our feelings, shift some eco-anxiety into eco-optimism
- Highlight the importance of emotional intelligence in driving effective and sustainable climate action.
