The Canadian Youth Delegation (CYD) to Copenhagen is a diverse, non-partisan team of young people from across Canada, united at the UN talks in Copenhagen, Denmark this December 2009 to share the voice of Canadian youth and create positive change in the international climate policy process. The Canadian Youth Delegation to Copenhagen builds on a long history of Canadian youth engagement in the UN climate negotiations process. Since the large and hugely effective mobilization of young people at COP11 in Montreal 2005, youth have organised a presence at every major meeting, including COP12 in Nairobi, Kenya, COP13 in Bali, Indonesia, and COP14 in Poznan, Poland. This year's COP in Copenhagen is critically important as the new post-2012 global climate agreement will be set. Canada has been hugely obstructing progress at the negotiations, and the CYD is committed to pressuring our government to be a leader, not a laggard, in achieving a fair, ambitious and binding agreement this December. We have come together, along with several other youth groups attending Copenhagen, to share the voice of Canadian youth with policymakers and connect young people across this country to the international community at this historic juncture. The CYD is a project of the Canadian Youth Climate Coalition.
