Pupils pitch their climate proposals to Green Dragons' Den - Camden Rise

Children from Camden primary schools pitched their climate projects to a panel of dragons at a Green Dragons' Den event in Camden on 28 April.

The event was organised by Think & Do Camden, Camden Climate Alliance (CCA) and Camden Learning and hosted by CCA member Troup Bywaters + Anders as part of CCA's School Climate Charter to empower schools to help Camden become a zero-carbon borough by 2030.

Pupils pitched for funds to support their school projects to tackle climate change, as well as attending workshops and discussions on rewilding, air quality, recycling and sustainable development.

The panel of dragons included the Mayor of Camden, Cllr Nasim Ali OBE; Camden Deputy Youth MP, Hdayet Otaky; Camden Council's Cabinet Member for Best Start for Children and Families, Cllr Marcus Boyland, as well as representatives from Troup Bywaters + Anders and Think & Do Camden.
