Youth Climate Report, in partnership with the United Nations Climate Change Secretariat and Television for the Environment, runs a program known as the Global Youth Video Competition. A call for entries is issued each year asking youth reporters around the world aged 18 to 30 to create three-minute videos under certain themes. The 2019 themes were:
1. Nature-based solutions for food and human health
2. Balancing use of land for people and ecosystems
3. Cities and local action to combat climate change
The top filmmaker in each category is flown to the host city of the COP conference that year to present their films and participate in the two-week conference.
