It is essential for young people in the Global South to become
more involved in international climate discussions, including
around solar radiation modification, says Ghanaian climate activist
Nii Noi Omaboe. His decision to screen a documentary about SRM at
Accra sustainability week prompted many questions, both about the
risks and insufficient governance, but also about opportunities for
research.
Omaboe is experienced in youth governance, human rights, and global
sustainable development processes. He has organized and worked for
nonprofit and international organizations like Amnesty
International, Red Cross, and 350 Ghana. In 2019, Omaboe co-founded
Sustainability Week Accra, the first local Sustainability Week in
Africa, and he currently provides strategic support to Green Africa
Youth Organisation’s Ghana team as well as supporting establishment
of Youth Climate Councils in the Global South. He is also a program
analyst at Impact Hub Accra.
