The Local Conference on Climate Change (LCOY) is an annual event organised for the second time in Syria, which aims to empower youth through their active participation in discussing climate change issues and proposing innovative solutions to confront them. The conference is organised globally by the Youth and Children Unit (Yongo) of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC).

One of the main points of focus of the conference is the importance of youth participation in confronting the effects of climate change, as their role is pivotal in providing new and innovative solutions. The conference aims to promote environmental awareness among youth and develop their skills in this field, allowing them to effectively contribute to national and international efforts to address climate change.

The conference is of great importance at the local level of the host country, as it contributes to building the capacities of local youth and developing their skills in the field of climate action. It also fosters collaboration between government entities as well as international and local organisations, contributing to achieving the Sustainable Development Goals and promoting green growth.
