Adolescents and young people in São Tomé and Príncipe have made recommendations on agricultural adaptation, greenhouses and reducing chemical fertilisers ahead of COP31. The proposals were developed at a national workshop organised by UNICEF to contribute to the country’s position at the climate conference, RSTP reports.
Adolescent girls and young people from São Tomé and Príncipe presented proposals on climate change to contribute to their country’s position at the COP31, the United Nations climate conference. They called, in particular, for agricultural systems capable of adapting to droughts and floods, according to RSTP, which covered the national workshop organised by UNICEF.
A member of the Children and Youth Parliament stressed that agriculture and fishing in São Tomé and Príncipe depend heavily on climate conditions. She said droughts and floods threaten crops and make adaptation measures necessary.
