As climate change precipitates societal and geopolitical changes in China and beyond, YCW and NüVoices recognise the growing need to scrutinise both climate discourse and the gendered aspects of environmental change. This panel will discuss the role of women and young people as drivers of Chinese environmental activism; the often sexist, classist and xenophobic discourse of population growth in relation to climate change in China; and the challenges of fostering awareness as well as driving forward effective policy changes.
