About
We extend a warm invitation to you for the
Synergy Summit 2.0 on 10X Literacy & Climate
Change. This exclusive summit unites thought
leaders, changemakers, and global
stakeholders to delve into the intersection
of literacy and climate change, recognizing
the transformative impact it can have on our
world. The magnitude of these twin
challenges necessitates 10x action and
radical transformation to safeguard the
future of millions of children and adults
globally.
Picture this: 70% of 10-year-olds in
low-and-middle-income countries lack reading
skills, jeopardizing their future. Global
carbon emissions have doubled in 30 years,
while 750 million adults remain illiterate—a
figure unchanged since 1950. Developing
nations, despite contributing less to
climate change, bear the brunt of its
calamitous effects. Regrettably, both crises
have been long overlooked.
We need to swiftly develop transformative
pedagogy, policies, and engage communities
in a widespread movement to challenge the
current state of affairs. The inspiring
efforts of young climate activists, for
example, serve as a powerful demonstration
of the potential of youth in driving
meaningful change.
Let's unite and collaborate. Let's
participate in strategic discussions, get
inspired, and explore opportunities to
create significant change in literacy and
climate action today.
Your involvement is highly valued and
essential. We warmly welcome your
participation.
