InterClimate Trust is a UK charity (UK Charity number 1100981) that empowers young people with the skills, knowledge and confidence to lead the debate and action on climate change and to make informed educational and career choices. We use the brand and working name InterClimate Network (ICN).

 

ICN engages young people aged from 13 to 18 across the UK with the complexities of climate change to inspire their climate action and promote their voices in their own sustainable future. Working with secondary schools, we organise interactive events, produce educational resources, and act as a network for sharing climate-focused opportunities with teachers and students.

 

Our team of long-standing associates and volunteers implement the ‘Climate Voices’ Programm which includes our flagship Model Climate Conferences (MCCs). In these, students take part in debate, critical thinking, action-planning, and advocacy.  The impact of the conferences is embedded and translated into subsequent Climate Action in schools, supported by ICN follow-up .  In this way, their actions are reinforced through recognition of individual and group achievements and by taking up opportunities to ‘have a say’.

 

The programme provides opportunities for developing life-skills and promoting leadership skills, as well as informing young people’s life choices with regard to climate change. Our approach reaches the very age group acknowledged as critical to our climate future, but with whom many charities find it difficult to engage, especially in more highly disadvantaged areas.
