What our volunteers say

Annabelle

22, Canada & Taiwan

I joined ClimaTalk’s COP28 Project Team to do some hands-on work related to my passion of youth empowerment and climate action. The community I experienced genuinely surprised me – I never would have expected such a strong connection to the other youth working virtually all across the world in different time zones! I am so excited to continue growing with ClimaTalk and engaging in meaningful work that catalyzes youth inclusion on the world stage and in policy-making decisions.

I joined ClimaTalk at the start of my climate action journey, just as I was undergoing my master’s degree. My experience in ClimaTalk, aside from the many valuable skills it provided me, has been a key element in my professional career. Coming from a technical background but knowing that I wanted to work on the climate field, my role at ClimaTalk opened many doors for me: first, an internship in sustainability-related projects at an international company; then, at my first job at an environmental NGO working on European climate policy. I can say with certainty that my career would be absolutely different if not for ClimaTalk, where I continue almost 4 years after.

ClimaTalk has made me interested in advocacy and policy work, and has encouraged me to apply for similar positions in other youth led climate organisations. It’s helped me understand that there’s more to science than the research-academic pipeline and that there are also non-conventional science careers which I’m excited to explore as potential options. It’s also given me insight into topics such as EU policy and international climate policy which are otherwise complex topics to otherwise independently research. Working with ClimaTalk has given me the confidence and skills to get involved more actively in the climate policy space.

ClimaTalk is deeply rooted in inclusion and teamwork, and that’s a commendable feat for an organization that works relentlessly and achieves so much! I joined ClimaTalk to better contribute to the research and writing aspects of climate policy, and that’s exactly what I’ve received impeccable help and opportunities regarding! So grateful for the whole team. Cheers!

ClimaTalk has been a great place to meet other young people passionate about climate change issues, and it has been a great way to increase my knowledge and expertise of EU climate policy. I’ve had the pleasure to interact with some lovely people throughout my time here!I think ClimaTalk has been very useful in securing my two professional experiences post-university. It demonstrated both my commitment to climate action and a pre-existing knowledge of EU climate policy (or so they told me!).
