120 young people from 38 countries across Africa and South East Asia joined us in Cape Town for the Climate Youth Leadership Programme. After five days of inspiring conversations, energetic workshops and creative collaborations, we caught up with Obedine Noxolo Tsuses, an entrepreneur from Namibia.
