AYCC Utas is a sub-group of the national organisation of the Australian Youth Climate Coalition, which is Australia’s largest youth-run organisation – our mission is to build a movement of young people leading solutions to the climate crisis.
Locally we work on campaigns in the community and raise awareness about national and international issues related to climate justice.
AYCC believes that climate change is the single greatest threat facing humanity, and that young people – as the inheritors of this planet – are the key stakeholder in humanity’s response to the climate crisis. However, we also believe that addressing the climate crisis is an opportunity to create a more sustainable, just and fair Australia.
AYCC’s mission is to create a generation-wide movement to solve the climate crisis.
We believe that a movement can create the groundswell of support and momentum needed to inspire this transition. Politicians will not support the policy changes we need unless they think their political lives depend on it and businesses will not implement sustainable business practices unless they think their bottom lines depend on it. This will require thousands of people, particularly in politically strategic areas, willing and able to take deep action on climate change when needed.
AYCC Tasmania meets fortnightly in Hobart and weekly in Launceston.
