Applications are now being accepted for the Bonn Climate Camp Bridge Program 2026, which provides groups and climate justice activists from the Global South with a fully supported opportunity to attend the UN Climate Subsidiary Body Meetings (SB64) in Bonn, Germany. The goal of this program is to increase involvement from the communities most impacted by climate change and give voice to underrepresented groups in international climate negotiations.
Participants will interact with experts, activists, and decision-makers, develop solid international networks, and be directly exposed to international climate policymaking through this program. Additionally, the program emphasizes capacity building, giving participants the information and resources they need to successfully promote climate justice in their local communities.
The camp, which will take place from June 7 to June 17, 2026, will include debates, workshops, and interactive sessions on important subjects like systemic inequality, climate policy, Indigenous rights, and sustainable development. In addition to gaining a deeper comprehension of these problems, participants will work together to develop strategies and solutions that will lead to significant change. Additional information is given below.
