Voices of Change with Monzir Mohammed | “Protect the planet from danger” | United Nations

UNICEF Youth Advocate and Sudanese Climate Activist Monzir Mohammed believes in the power of innovation and the empowerment of young people. Coming from Sudan’s Blue Nile region, where the air temperature has increased by 1°C every year since the 1970s, he has seen first-hand the devastation caused by climate disasters such as droughts and floods. In this interview, he talks about giving young people the chance to lead climate action - and why he joined a group of likeminded young people to build Sudan’s first solar-powered car. In the lead up to the UN Climate Change Conference (COP27) in Egypt in November 2022, the Voices of Change video series features interviews with some of the world’s indefatigable climate activists, looking at their courage to persist against all odds, while advocating for change and solutions to protect vulnerable communities and our planet. #cop27
