The Climate Smart Initiative for Children implements Climate Action Projects.
“There is no greater, growing threat facing the world’s children and their
children than climate change”.
What We Do
The Climate Smart Initiative for Children (CSIC) is a Non-Governmental Organization
working with children across the globe to bring an end to climate change.
At 30% of the current world’s population, children do not only represent the largest group of people currently affected by climate change, but they are also more vulnerable than adults to its harmful effects and are the generation that will be required to deal with the future impacts of climate change.
At CSIC, we believe that every child deserves a healthy and safe environment. We want
to ensure that all children can enjoy these rights and are partnering with children to
deliver immediate results. We offer climate smart solutions that educate children while
they are still young about the importance of taking care of mother nature and their
surroundings.
Our Vision
That children all over the globe are strategically positioned on the front line of the global climate change and are armored with resources, skills, and a safe space to meaningfully participate in climate change adaptation action and decision making in their communities and to engage in and
influence local, national and global climate policy processes.
Our Mission:
To foster child-centered and child-led climate
action.
Our work focuses on mainly two objectives.
To support children in and raising their voices on climate action and engaging with
decision makers and policy processes, providing links with governments at national,
regional and global level.
To influence individuals, civil society, governments, businesses, academia and
practitioners to support child-centered climate action. This is important because
children concerned with the effects of climate change can inspire pro-environmental behaviors in themselves and others.
