In this episode Justine Perrotti and Matt Lefler interview two of the organizers of the Mock COP26: Kevin Mtai of Kenya and Kelo Uchendu of Nigeria.

The Mock COP26 was an international, student-led project mobilizing around the postponement of this year’s COP to create an inclusive event for the youth, and show world leaders and the global community what an ambitious yet realistic COP could look like. EARTHDAY.ORG partnered with Mock COP26 with the goal of engaging global delegates and to raise awareness and bring change regarding Climate justice, education, resilient livelihoods, health and wellbeing, and nationally determined contributions.
