This report, “Advocates for Change: Asia Pacific Children and Youth’s Voices & Perspectives on Climate Action and Disaster Risk Reduction”, is the result of the collaboration between partners from different development organizations. This project commenced in May 2024 and culminated in the launch of the report in October 2024 by the Asia Pacific Coalition for School Safety (APCSS).

World Vision's Disaster Risk Reduction (DRR) training in Sepionda, Southern Highlands, has been a turning point for local communities facing the growing impacts of climate change. The training, which focused on using local materials and plants to reduce disaster risks, taught participants practical ways to protect their homes and land, like planting trees to prevent erosion. It also provided valuable peace-building and conflict-resolution tools, helping people understand that natural disasters are not caused by spirits or revenge, as previously believed. After a recent landslide, the community’s new knowledge helped prevent violence. Leaders expressed deep gratitude for the training and the hope for continued support to better prepare for future challenges.
