Samia Dumbuya (she/they) is a climate justice advocate who focuses on upskilling and educating young people and marginalised communities in the UK to be active climate changemakers. For the past 8 years, they have been facilitating workshops dedicated to climate education to ensure young people understand the significance of how the climate crisis and the deterioration of the environment impact their lives and other people’s lives. Their clients have included: Complicité Theatre company, Oxford University, Samsung, The Natural History Museum, Friends of the Earth Europe, local London authorities and similar organisations using youth engagement as a tool to upskill tomorrow’s leaders. Their experience has led them to become this year’s Youth Delegate for COP29 on behalf of the Future Leaders Network representing young people across the UK, bringing their voices to the global stage. Samia has recently been made a BeVisioneers Fellow, a programme run by The Do School in Berlin supported by Mercedes-Benz working on a youth-led green skills hub, supporting young people to be a part of the green transition. Samia uses community engagement as a tool to create space for people to imagine climate-just futures for all and take action on a local level.
