Red Cross training climate hoax activist youth?!

IFRC - Youth and climate change action
The IFRC has heard your call and wants to help to provide you with tools, training and opportunities that you will need to become the strong advocates and activists that are needed for the International Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement of tomorrow.

Climate change is one of the key issues that you identified in your declaration, and our two-year climate change initiative is designed to promote youth involvement in this field and to empower your voice as Red Cross Red Crescent spokespeople advocating on climate change related issues. Through an online competition, we will identify and select 10 young volunteers from across the world to act as spokespersons for the Red Cross Red Crescent at the UN climate conference in Mexico this December.
Red Cross Red Crescent - Vision, mission and role
Founded in 1919, the International Federation comprises 186 member Red Cross and Red Crescent societies, a Secretariat in Geneva and more than 60 delegations strategically located to support activities around the world. There are more societies in formation. The Red Crescent is used in place of the Red Cross in many Islamic countries.
