Green New Deal Rising trains young people as organisers and leaders, building a powerful youth movement for climate and economic justice. We run campaigns and create the political pressure that drives real change. We’re led by young people from all backgrounds - the generation with most at stake.

The climate crisis demands urgent, systemic action - but it has lost political salience just when momentum matters most. Young people, who have most at stake, are routinely dismissed and excluded from politics. Meanwhile, economic hardship is being exploited to pit communities against climate action. There is a dangerous void where a powerful, organised youth constituency should exist. Without it, transformational change cannot happen.
We are building the organised youth movement the climate crisis demands. Through leadership training, local teams, and bold campaigns, we equip young people with the skills, relationships, and political confidence to take action and win. Our leadership programme and annual national gathering create pathways for those most marginalised. Local volunteer teams, active in areas UK-wide, turn national campaigns into community power.
