Youth-led climate action, gatherings, and collaboration in Dhaka.
Dhaka is often described through the lens of risk. Dhaka Climate Week sees something different: a city that continues to grow, adapt, and innovate despite some of the world’s most complex climate challenges.
The future of climate action will not be built only in wealthy capitals. It will also be built in cities like Dhaka, where resilience is practised every day and where the Global South is shaping solutions for the world.
