The Malaysian Youth Delegation (MYD) is a volunteer-based civil society organisation that focuses on representing Malaysia’s local youth climate movement and raising awareness of climate policies among Malaysians. MYD had the opportunity to attend the Sixtieth Subsidiary Body (SB60) in Bonn, where three of our representatives followed the negotiation tracks on the Mitigation Work Programme (MWP), the Global Goal on Adaptation (GGA), the New Collective Quantified Goal on Climate Finance (NCQG), and Article 6 of the Paris Agreement. 

In addition to following these negotiation tracks, our representatives also attended multiple side events as speakers and participants, including those organised by YOUNGO (the official youth constituency of UNFCCC) and the Bonn Climate Camp.

Our delegates reflect Malaysia’s role and insights from attending the SB60 meetings to this report. It highlights the progress and updates on the discussions, outlines the challenges encountered, and provides policy recommendations relevant to Malaysia.

In this report, MYD hopes to emphasise the importance of youth perspectives and capabilities, as well as the role they can play in the Malaysian climate advocacy, negotiations and policy process.
