About Dominique
Bio
Salut, I’m Dom. I’m a designer, systems thinker and youth advocate. I’m passionate about the intersections of climate justice, social innovation, and climate finance.
I am the co-founder of Youth Climate Lab, a global organization focused on supporting young people start and scale their climate action. We design local to global projects to equip youth to lead the change they know is needed.
I lead YCL’s design and radical collaborations. Some of the questions I explore in my work: How might we centre the voices and ideas of those most impacted - including future generations - in climate policy? How might we co-create the just, climate-resilient futures we deserve - and have fun doing it? What happens when you actually invest in youth to transform their communities?
I am big policy & governance nerd. I serve on the Boards of Directors for one Canada’s top climate policy research institutes and a youth-for-youth funding platform. Fière queer et Franco-Ontarienne.

Youth-responsive climate finance & intergenerational equity
