Lifting up local voices and expertise with early funding and opportunities through academia, policy and finance. Empowering the next generation of local leaders in the Global South, here's Joshua Amponsem on Climate Curious.

Watch Joshua's TED Talk, 'The absurd inequality of climate work – and how to fix it'.
