ActNowFilm is a youth voices film project produced the University of Bath Institute for Policy Research (IPR) and Cambridge Zero, as part of the UK Universities Climate Network (UUCN).
The 2021 film, Youth Voices on Climate, showcases the views of 16-30 year olds and is drawn from films submitted by over 140 young people from 32 countries. In the film, young people from across the world share their lived experiences of climate change; their hopes and ambitions for the future; and their 'asks' of the climate change negotiators, as well as their own climate pledges. They share, in their own words, why stopping climate change is important to them – the future generation.
This film was launched at a Green Zone event at COP26 in Glasgow in November 2021. It was also showcased at the GAUC Climate x Summit, COP15 on Biodiversity, Climate Week NYC and the Vatican Youth Symposium.
It was produced in partnership with student volunteers and the Global Alliance of Universities on Climate (GAUC).
