Futures at Stake: Climate Change, Human Rights, and Youth Advocacy

The 2026 Dash Conference will center around themes of youth and indigenous environmental activism, legal innovation for climate justice on the world stage, and challenges and opportunities for climate action in the United States.

The conference will include panel discussions on how youth and other activists have responded with leadership and strength in the face of climate change; the efforts that have driven the issuance of recent landmark international advisory opinions and how they can be leveraged for maximum impact; and how lawyers and advocates in the United States can overcome obstacles and translate recent momentum in international law into durable domestic reform.

Location: 500 1st Street NW, 9th Floor Conference Room
