Carrie van der Kroon, @DefenceChildren "The annual budget of the (Dutch) government: There is room for climate diplomacy, and a special role for women. However, children and youth are not mentioned. We need to have a discussion about children being involved as the change makers."

@Eefkevdwouw “Climate change is like slowly cooking frogs: the changes are too slow for it notice and it boils to death. Currently, we are slowly cooking humans.”#OurFutureOurRights
