Calling All JA Alumni: Join the COP29 Short Video Showcase

October 2, 2024

Are you passionate about the environment, innovation, and making real-world change? Have you ever thought about how your small, everyday actions or big entrepreneurial ideas could make a huge impact on our planet? This is your chance to show the world what you’re up to.

Join the COP29 Short Video Showcase from JA Asia Pacific and JA Azerbaijan. Flex your creativity and share your sustainability journey in video form. From launching eco-friendly businesses to making small lifestyle tweaks that have a big impact, we want to hear about it all. Open to high school, college, and university students, you’ll create a video that shows how you support the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), sustainability, and climate change action. Whether you’re passionate about sustainability, already running a green business, or just starting your journey, we want to hear your voice.

Choose one of these themes for your video submission:

  1. Sustainable Solutions in Action: Share the creative ways you’re contributing to sustainability. Whether it’s a small habit you’ve picked up or an innovative solution you’ve discovered, we want to see how you’re making a difference. No action is too small!

  2. Green Entrepreneurship / Innovate for the Planet: Have you launched a business or started a project focused on solving environmental challenges? Do you have an awesome idea that could transform how we think about sustainability? Showcase your entrepreneurial spirit and tell us know how you’re helping the planet through your ventures.

  3. Sustainable Lifestyle Transformations: Gen Z is all about walking the talk when it comes to saving the planet. Share the changes you’ve made in your own life—from reducing your carbon footprint to living more sustainably—and inspire others to follow suit.
