The WildHearts Global Youth Summit

For the past four years, during COP, WildHearts have hosted The World’s Largest Youth-led Sustainability Summit, spanning five continents. Across these years, we have achieved over 180,000 student engagements, uniting young people from around the globe in the mission to build a better future.

The WildHearts Global Youth Summit will return during COP30, and we are inviting you to be a part of it. This November, your school is invited to join our global network of empowered young people to learn, collaborate and innovate to create a more sustainable future.

Alongside our digital resources, the Summit also comes to life through in-person hubs hosted in key cities.
