Everyone has the power and potential to take meaningful action for the planet.
Generation Hope is an initiative led by the Natural History Museum in collaboration with young climate leaders from across the world, empowering young people to become advocates for the planet.
It creates a space where scientists, activists, creatives and others can come together to explore both challenges and solutions in the planetary emergency. Through talks, workshops, storytelling and more, the programme helps young people understand the science, build confidence and skills to talk about the issues, and connect with one another to foster collective action.
Booking tickets is essential, as there are a limited number of spaces for each event. Sessions are most suitable for ages 16+. Please check the individual sessions for age restrictions and guidance. All children must be accompanied by an adult.
