Connecting the Dots: Nexus between YPS and Environmental Peacebuilding (S09 E09)
Update: 2025-08-07
Description
In this 9th episode of the Peace Corner Podcast, our host Mariam Tinikashvili, Advocacy Officer at UNOY Peacebuilders, is joined by Robin Fontaine, Climate and YPS Advisor at Sustainable Cooperation for Peace & Security (SCPS), to explore how youth-led environmental peacebuilding is not only responding to the climate-conflict nexus, but actively reshaping the Youth, Peace and Security (YPS) agenda.
Drawing from fieldwork in the Sahel and Latin America and policy engagement through initiatives like Peace@COP, Robin offers powerful insights into how young people are restoring ecosystems, protecting indigenous land, and building social cohesion in fragile and conflict-affected areas.
This episode also dives into the differences and overlaps between the YPS and Climate, Peace and Security (CPS) agendas, highlighting the value, and challenges, of bridging these frameworks from the ground up.
Whether it’s grassroots reforestation projects, youth activism against extractive industries, or efforts to bring local voices into multilateral spaces, this conversation sheds light on the urgent need to recognize, resource, and protect youth-led environmental peacebuilding around the world.
