  Leaders Summit 2026 - Climate Change in a Time of Competing Crises Applic
 ation Form Presentation of the Event Climate change has shaped political a
 gendas for years — and it remains a pressing reality for local communiti
 es today. Yet young elected politicians are governing in a context where c
 rises and competing priorities multiply: war and insecurity\, inflation an
 d rising costs\, shifting geopolitical dynamics\, and growing pressure on 
 public services and budgets. In this crowded landscape\, how do local lead
 ers keep climate action in focus — and how do they decide what to priori
 tise when everything feels urgent? Organised by Renew Europe CoR\, alongsi
 de LYMEC and YDE\, this Summit brings together young elected politicians (
 under 35) for an honest\, solutions-oriented conversation about what clima
 te leadership looks like today. The programme is designed as a participant
 -led conversation: we want to hear directly from you whether climate chang
 e remains a political priority in your mandate\, what helps (or prevents) 
 you from advancing climate policies locally\, and how you navigate trade-o
 ffs\, communication challenges and public expectations. The Summit will be
  chaired by Renew Europe CoR member Clare Colleran Molloy\, Councillor and
  Deputy Mayor of Clare County Council in Ireland and CoR Rapporteur in the
  Commission for the Environment\, Climate Change and Energy (ENVE). This y
 ear’s edition of the Summit will also feature the participation of MEP L
 ukas Sieper as the closing keynote speaker. Participants will be invited t

 local politics\, how they defend long-term investments in short-term crisi
 s cycles\, and how they keep climate on the agenda while responding to vot
 ers’ immediate concerns. The Summit aims to highlight liberal and democr
 atic solutions\, alongside concrete [...]
