About Youth at the Center
The Center for Sustainable Futures, with support from the Arthur Zankel Urban Fellowship, developed the Youth at the Center program. The purpose of the initiative is to ensure all youth, regardless of background, have the opportunity to engage with the most pressing issue of our time: climate change. To realize this purpose, the Center partners with New York City youth climate activists to empower, support, and amplify their activities.

Conversations About Climate Project
The ‘Conversations about Climate Storytelling’ Project was developed to capture what NYC high school students currently feel and think about the environment and climate change.
This project is ongoing- Are you a high schooler interested in submitting an essay, poem, video, or piece of art? Are you a high school teacher or sustainability coordinator interested in having us conduct an in-person workshop for your students? Email Mac Mann-Wood (mm6085@tc.columbia.edu).
