Youth Agrichampions Demand Paper 2025: Youth-Powered Agroecology: Building Climate Resilience for Smallholder Farmers
Global Food and Nutrition Security

Presented by the Ban Ki-moon Centre for Global Citizens, the Youth AgriChampions Demand Paper 2025 urges policymakers to place youth-led agroecology at the center of climate discussions. It offers three actionable demands on water management, soil health, and agroforestry to build smallholder farmers’ resilience. Established by 18 young smallholder farmers and agri-preneurs, it calls for young farmers’ voices to be heard in climate policy. Read the paper to champion an inclusive, rights-based food system.
