The meeting is held under the theme: “The Impact of Climate Change on Women and Youth in the SADC Region and the Role of Parliaments in Climate Change Mitigation”. Didiza says delegates will also reflect on progress made in addressing these challenges in different countries.
“This is a meeting held in different times and different countries who are members of SADC. It allows us an opportunity to pick one area and the symposium gives an opportunity to learn from each other on how we deal with those challenges. Today’s theme relates to climate change on women and the youth in the SADC region. As SA, we felt KwaZulu-Natal is the best location to have such meeting because of how it has experienced inclement weather and disasters,” she said.
