6-year-old Wachiraya Puttirodjanakun attended as the 51Talk representative from Thailand, demonstrating the importance for younger generations to be involved in critical decisions about the future of the earth's climate. The youngest participant in this year's climate change conference, Wachiraya expressed the importance of protecting her environment and shared what she learned on her influential TikTok channel (@miramarvelfamily), helping shape the next generation's ideas on how to better protect the earth. Wachiraya said, "Although I am still very young, I believe it's important to do simple things every day that can make a difference and ask people to make things better - like not littering, choosing green transport, and saving electricity. Environmental protection starts with small steps in our daily lives." Wachiraya's mother adds, "We would like to thank 51Talk for inviting us to join COP28 this year. It's a valuable experience for my child which truly inspires children to have future goals that can benefit both them and the environment.

The four outstanding students from 51Talk were invited to represent the younger generation. Their presence at COP28 signified a vital platform for advocating environmental protection, showcasing a profound sense of responsibility and dedication among global youth. Their impact extended beyond the stage. In a creative initiative titled "Join Me as a Little Environmental Warrior" they captured the hearts and minds of conference participants by engaging attendees at the conference to contribute their thoughts and solutions for tackling climate change on a global scale. This interactive activation became a powerful symbol of collective action and the unified call for a sustainable future.
