For us online observers, COP26 had just been a two-week bootcamp to keep updated with climate negotiations through livestreams. For youth delegates Hermia and Mark, COP26 had been a whirlwind of workshops, talks, protests and social events. This week we caught up with the two youth delegates of Hong Kong to talk about their experiences at COP26, how they got involved with youth advocates (shoutout to YOUNGO!), and what’s next for collective climate action.
