Asked by:
David Mundell (Conservative)

Answer

I have established a diverse international Civil Society and Youth Advisory Council, the first of its kind at any COP, to work with the UK Presidency to deliver a successful summit. The co-chairs are young climate activists, one from the global north and one from the global south.

I have also committed to and have been meeting civil society and youth groups on my international visits to ensure their voices are heard at COP26.
