The Northern Food Network will be hosting a webinar featuring presentations from Yukon Indigenous Community Climate Change Champions. The YIC4 is a two-year project that is focused on training Yukon Indigenous youth, aged 18-30 years on climate change and leadership skills for gathering and mobilizing new and existing knowledge, from global, local and Indigenous perspectives, for climate change adaptation in the Yukon.

The overall goal of this initiative is to build upon Yukon First Nations communities' capacity to respond to complex issues related to climate change and its effects on food and water security, in particular.
