About Us
Youth Strike 4 Climate is a global student-led movement fighting for climate action. We organise and stage strikes to protest governments' inaction against the growing global crisis that is climate change and strive to increase popular awareness of the issue through leafleting, speeches, and marches.
We are the organisers for the Leicester-based school strikes.
