At a time of planetary change, this event invites young people from Switzerland and Japan to enter into dialogue with the Earth. As the impacts of climate change become increasingly tangible in our daily lives, we gather to reflect on questions that are both simple and urgent:

• How can more-than-human beings be represented in climate conversations?
• What can we each do to advance just climate action for future generations?

With ample opportunities for exchange, the program brings together Swiss and Japanese youth to explore how relationships of care, with forests, animals, plants, local communities, and the planet’s living fabric, might guide meaningful climate action.

Centered around case studies from Japan and Switzerland, the event creates space for shared reflection and collective visioning. Through presentations and dialogue across contexts, participants will consider how youth-led initiatives can contribute to climate justice for all forms of life.

Co-hosted with Happy Earth Day Osaka, this event forms part of the Planetary Embassy in Japan. At the venue, the exhibition Imagining Planetary Diplomacy, featuring selected youth projects from around the world, will be on view. Together, the dialogue and exhibition invite visitors to imagine new forms of planetary diplomacy.
