Women and Youth-Centered Environmental Narratives (WYCEN)
WYCEN (Women and Youth-Centered Environmental Narratives) is an upcoming initiative designed to systematically document and amplify news stories at the intersection of women, youth, and the environment. The project will curate relevant media coverage, policy developments, and community actions to highlight how environmental issues affect and involve these groups globally.
By building a structured repository of narratives, WYCEN aims to strengthen evidence-based advocacy, enhance awareness, and promote inclusive environmental discourse. It will serve as a growing knowledge hub ensuring that women and youth perspectives remain central in shaping sustainable and accountable environmental governance.
